• Key Concepts: 
  Long text processing is a feature of the SAP BC-DOC-DTL Documentation Tools component. It allows users to store and manage large amounts of text in the SAP system. This text can be used for various purposes, such as documentation, descriptions, and notes. The long text processing feature also provides a range of functions for editing and formatting the text. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use long text processing, users must first create a long text object in the SAP system. This object can then be used to store and manage the text. The long text object can be linked to other objects in the system, such as documents or transactions. Once the long text object is created, users can use the various functions available in the long text processing feature to edit and format the text. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using long text processing, it is important to remember that the maximum length of a single long text object is 32,767 characters. If more than this amount of text needs to be stored, multiple long text objects must be created. Additionally, it is important to note that long texts are stored in the database as plain text and cannot contain any formatting or special characters.
