B1DE namespace support

[Former Member]

I understand that from January 2009, SAP are only letting partners register for namespaces over 5 characters. The installation of the B1DE does not support namespaces longer that 4 characters. Does anyone know when the B1DE will be updated to support the longer namespaces?

Many Thanks

Hi Robert,

There must be some misunderstanding:

I just checked with the owner of the namespace reservation process @SAP - and he told me that there has bee NO change!

Please note that you will never use the "/"es which you have to fill into the namespace field when requesting a namespace!

I.e. the namespace you want would be: "ROB", but you have to fill in "/ROB/" into the field - just there - no where else!

I understand now. So the minimum of 5 characters includes the /'s?

Thanks very much for your help, I have requested a shorter namespace now.

Yes.

I noticed that there has been some misleading comment to the B1DE blog - maybe this confused you?

...I have replied to that comment as well...

Yes, although the confusion maninly arose from the 'Minimum 5 characters' comment on the namespace request screen. And the fact that the field is already surrounded by the /'s.

Thanks again for your help, most useful.
