System Response

If one tries to create a table constraint (i.e. a constraint with a
variant table in the source code) by the wizard in PMEVC, for a material
number longer than 30 digits an error message is raised. The reason for
this is: The syntax check of the configurator can handle only material
numbers with maximum 30 digits.

You may still create a table constraint with a class instead of a
material. For this, call the wizard after selecting a class in the model
tree of transaction PMEVC.
