After you have imported the corresponding Audit TXD (As described in the Template Usage chapter) into your DCT, you will  use the data from this report to change your Audit files and global variables declared in your DCT, as follows:

 

Longest Record: You have to change the StoredRecord field in each area of your DCT, that's the GlobalData area, the Audit File, the AuditNew file and the AuditBck file.

Change the default length of 4000 to the size indicated in the "Longest Record" line. You can leave a small margin if you want, just in case. If you change the StoredRecord’s field type to Blob this step is not required (like for example if you use MSSQL as the Audit file driver).

 

Maximum number of memos: This number becomes the DIM number of the named "Memo" field in FullRecord's global data area.

You have to change the first "Dimensions" value to the number indicated in the "Maximum number of memos" field.

You also have to change the "Characters" value to the longest of all the listed memos.

This is also mentioned in the General Tab explanation.

 

Longest Memo: For the Audit, AuditBck and AuditNew files, you have create memo fields for the number of memos reported here, and with the same length as in this report.
