It was announced some time ago that CenPos was changing the data type of their Reference Number field from data type INT to LONG. For FACTS, this only affects the length of the field. Prior to this change, the length of the field was 10 characters long, however we do not enforce the length of the field anywhere in code (we do not reference the field with substrings, and the actual data in the file is a field delimited length). It is also a field that is not user facing, so there is no need to adjust any reports or screen prompts. We have changed the metadata to reflect a change in length of the field (it is now 20 characters long) but it requires no changes to code and does not affect operations in any way.
Thank you,
