In order to be able to switch between languages, the translated attributes length is limited to a maximum of 2000 characters.
Note: Valuemation is used by customers whose already populated databases use a database character set supporting only a group of related languages based on the same script. E.g. WE8MSWIN1252 supports Western European languages (Catalan, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Icelandic, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish). While its possible to store characters in VARCHAR2 columns on such database, it is not possible to store characters from EE8MSWIN1250, which supports East European languages (Croatian, Czech, Hungarian, Polish, Romanian, Slovak). To introduce multilingual data into such databases while keeping the original character set for the rest of the database, unicode data type NCHAR/NVARCHAR2/NCLOB is used. | |||||
