Symptom
You have a Point-of-Sales integration with SAP Business ByDesign which is coming in error due to the size of the ExternalID.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the Application and User Management work center.
- Select the Business Communication Monitoring view.
- Select the line for Business Document: Point-of-Sale Transaction.
- Navigate to the Message Details tab.
Error: Value is longer than the maximum permitted length 10.
Resolution
This is the expected system behavior.
The field ExternalID for the Point-of-Sales transaction was designed to receive a limit of 10 or less characters only.
An alternative option may be to check the SAP Business ByDesign Influence Portal to submit an idea.
