Here the IDOC displays Street and House no. is in one Field (STRAS) and if the character limit is reached, then the system cuts off remaining characters.

 Currently we only concatenate House ID and street Name and put it in the STRAS field.

It is not guaranteed that IDOC maps all address fields available in the BYD XML payload to the IDOC payload.

For the address, the IDOC payload has only 2 fields capable of holding street address STRAS and STRS2 both of which are 35 char long. Whereas in ByD we have House ID, Street Name, Address line 1, address line 2 address line 3 and so on. So, it is not possible to get all the address info available in BYD into the IDOC fields.
