• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message QISR035 - The name of field &1 will be truncated during generation of the form ?

  The SAP error message QISR035 indicates that the name of a field in a form is too long and will be truncated during the generation of the form. This typically occurs in the context of SAPscript or Smart Forms, where field names must adhere to certain length restrictions.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that the field name exceeds the maximum allowable length for field names in SAP. In SAPscript and Smart Forms, field names are generally limited to a certain number of characters (usually 30 characters). If a field name exceeds this limit, SAP will truncate the name, which can lead to issues in form generation and data representation.
  Solution:
  To resolve the QISR035 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Identify the Field: Check the field name mentioned in the error message (represented as &1). This will help you identify which field is causing the issue.
  
  
  Rename the Field: If you have control over the field name, consider renaming it to a shorter version that still conveys the necessary information. Ensure that the new name is within the character limit.
  
  
  Modify the Form: If the field is part of a form (SAPscript or Smart Forms), you may need to adjust the form layout or logic to accommodate the shorter field name.
  
  
  Check Data Dictionary: If the field is coming from a data dictionary object (like a table or structure), you may need to modify the data dictionary definition to use a shorter name.
  
  
  Test the Changes: After making the necessary changes, regenerate the form and test it to ensure that the error is resolved and that the form behaves as expected.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Field Naming Conventions: Familiarize yourself with SAP's naming conventions and limitations for fields, especially when designing forms or data structures.
  SAPscript and Smart Forms Documentation: Review the official SAP documentation for SAPscript and Smart Forms to understand the limitations and best practices for field names and form design.
  Debugging Tools: Use SAP debugging tools to trace the form generation process and identify any other potential issues that may arise from field name truncation.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the QISR035 error and successfully generate your form without truncation issues.
