  The SAP error message "HRPADFR_INFOTYPES000 Entered text is shortened as it has more than 90 characters" typically occurs in the context of maintaining infotypes in the SAP Human Resources (HR) module.

  Use Multiple Entries: If the information is too extensive to fit within the limit, consider breaking it into multiple entries or using additional fields if available.
  Check Field Configuration: If you believe that the character limit should be increased, consult with your SAP administrator or HR module configuration team. They can review the field settings and determine if adjustments can be made to accommodate longer text entries.
  Documentation: Ensure that you are aware of the specific requirements for the infotype you are working with. Refer to SAP documentation or internal guidelines for best practices on data entry.
