Definition

The object name length specifies how long the object name is for a particular object type of the Change and Transport System.

In the piece list of the logical object, the replacement character for the object name is "/&". The replacement character "/&" stands for the number of characters, as specified by the object name length.

Example:

Logical object:
Program ID "R3TR"
Logical Obj "TEST"

In the piece list of the object, there is the key description "EE/&" for a table (T123), which has two key fields:
Field 1 has two characters
Field 2 has seven characters

The object name length should in this case be 7.

The object name of the object "TEST" must therefore be a maximum of seven digits long. If it is shorter then this, it is padded with blanks.

Through the transport object "R3TR" "TEST" "HUGO", the following key of table T123 is written (on account of the piece list):
"EEHUGO ".
