ED085
- & line(s) commented out, & skipped (text too long) ?The SAP error message ED085 typically indicates that there is an issue with the length of the text in a specific field, which exceeds the allowed limit. This can occur in various contexts, such as when working with text elements in SAP scripts, Smart Forms, or other text-related functionalities.
Cause:
- Text Length Exceeded: The primary cause of this error is that the text you are trying to input or process exceeds the maximum character limit defined for that field. Each field in SAP has a predefined length, and if the text exceeds this length, the system will skip the text and generate the error message.
- Formatting Issues: Sometimes, the way the text is formatted or structured can also lead to this error, especially if there are line breaks or special characters that are not handled properly.
Solution:
- Check Text Length: Review the text you are trying to input and ensure that it does not exceed the maximum length allowed for that field. You can usually find the maximum length in the field's technical settings or documentation.
- Split Text: If the text is too long, consider splitting it into multiple shorter segments that fit within the allowed limits. This may involve creating multiple text elements or breaking the text into smaller parts.
- Use Shorter Descriptions: If possible, use more concise language to convey the same information without exceeding the character limit.
- Adjust Field Length (if applicable): In some cases, if you have the necessary permissions and it makes sense for your application, you may be able to adjust the field length in the data dictionary (SE11) to accommodate longer text. However, this should be done with caution and typically requires a thorough understanding of the implications.
- Review Code: If this error occurs in custom code (e.g., ABAP programs), review the code to ensure that text handling is done correctly and that any concatenation or formatting does not lead to exceeding the limits.
