    Switch BC sets: Table/view &V1& contains data fields with a field length
    of more than 255 characters.

    System Response

    You cannot use the table/view in switch BC sets because a table/view can
    only be used in switch BC sets if all fields can be included.

    How to fix this error?

    This is not an incorrectly designed table/view. Principally, a field can
    have a length of more than 255 characters. However, because of BC set
    technology restrictions, this table/view cannot be used in BC sets.
    The problem can be solved only if the (SAP) developer responsible
    changes the design of the table/view in the Data Dictionary. The length
    must be reduced to a value < 256 characters (output length). If a
    maintenance dialog was generated for the table/view, you must then
    regenerate it by using transaction SE54.

    Procedure for System Administrators

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
