Shrinivas,

please post in the appropriate forum - either Server or PX for this question (although it does look like PX).

What is your problem with the error? If you have a column defined as char(16) and try to put the varchar text "Hello World, my name is Arnd" into it you will get this error message.

Your problem is that your data do not conform to your metadata. One (at least) of your rows contains a value in the VarChar field that is too large to fit into the Char field. Use a substring function to effect the appropriate truncation. Or delcare the Char field large enough. I presume from the function name that this is being accessed from an IDoc.
