In general, there are two possibilities of controlling the input history:
FIELD NAME LENGTH
FIELD NAME LENGTH
- The history is only written for field names with a maximum length of 40 characters. In earlier SAP GUI versions, this length was restricted to 30 characters. The history file must be deleted to achieve extended support.
- If the length of the input field is 60 or more characters, history is not written either. "Input field length" refers to the dictionary length of the field, not to the "visible length" on the screen. (The restriction of the input data to 60 characters results from the fact that text editors were often built as lists of text fields with a length of 60 in the past. In those editors, this history was quite annoying. By customer request, this was changed.)
- As of SAP GUI 7.10 patch 12, you can use the SAP GUI options dialog to set the variable length of the entry field up to which the system writes the history:
- Choose ALT+F12 -> Options. On the "Local data" tab page, an input field to activate history for up to x characters exists in the "History" group. In this field, you can enter the length for the input fields up to which the system writes the history (up to 255 characters; default is 59).
- The change does not take effect until you restart the SAP GUI.
