Posting Issue - DeferralUtilities codeunit "RemoveOrSetDeferralSchedule" accept 50 characters only

(2) ShareShare

Recently, our users hit string length error when they were posting Purchase Order.
 
After checking, it seems the standard DeferralUtilities codeunit - "RemoveOrSetDeferralSchedule" function does not accept more than 50 characters for Purchase Line's Description (100 characters in standard).
 
I am thinking should I modify the codeunit function or waiting from Microsoft to update it.
I have the same question (0)

    Hi, I checked the standard code and found no problem with the definition of Description. I suggest you debug it again to see where the problem lies.
     
    Thanks

    Thanks ZHU !!!
     
    Based on your screenshot, i know what is the problem behind.
     
    Should be my mistake, our vendor has created a standalone "DeferralUtilities Ext. Codeunit", and our posting logic is calling to it instead of the real standard Deferral Utilities codeunit.
     
    Once I increased the length of the Description in the extension, problem fixed.
