Help Document

Diagnosis

The syntax check found an error in an entry for an object. The name in a key entry is too long. Names of key fields can be no longer than 10 characters.

System Response

The cursor marks the place in the object entry where the error occurs.

Procedure

An object is accessed by entering the object identifier, the class type, and the object key:
(Material)(300)(NR='M4711')
The object key can consist of several parts, as is the case with documents, for example:
(Document)(017)(TYPE=DRW, VERSION=00, PART=000, NR='bmw-ca31')

The object identifier and object key are defined in the IMG for Classification.

  • In the Define object types step, an object identifier is defined for each object type. This identifies the object type in dependency maintenance functions. 'Material' is the object ID for materials. 'Document' is the object ID for documents.
  • In the Define object keys step, you see the object key for an object type. The fields of the object key have a special field ID, which is used to refer to the fields in object dependencies. The object key for materials is the material number. The material number has the object ID 'NR'. For documents, the key fields have the object IDs 'TYPE', 'VERSION', 'PART', and 'NR'.

The names of the key fields can be no longer than 10 characters. Correct the names you entered accordingly.
