Common Questions About Field Character Limits
Field character limits in Dazos can sometimes cause data truncation during EMR integrations, where longer entries get cut off unexpectedly.
Q: Why is my data being truncated during EMR integration?
A: Data truncation typically occurs when field character limits in Dazos are set too low for the type of data being entered. This can cause longer entries like location names, program names, or other text fields to be cut off mid-word.
Q: How can I tell if character limits are causing the issue?
A: Look for these signs:
Text entries appear incomplete or cut off at unexpected points
Data that should be longer is displaying only the first few characters
Integration data doesn't match what was originally entered
Q: How do I fix character limit issues?
A: Character limit adjustments need to be made by the Dazos support team. Contact support with details about:
Which specific field is experiencing truncation
Examples of the full data that should be displayed
The current character limit you're seeing
Q: Can I adjust character limits myself?
A: No, field character limit adjustments require backend configuration changes that can only be made by Dazos technical support.
