Parameter documentation

This parameter only applies in Unicode systems. The ABAP commands SORT ... AS TEXT and CONVERT ... INTO SORTABLE CODE use internal fields in which a binary, sortable code is stored. If these fields are too small, the sorting can become imprecise. You can avoid this by increasing the parameter value.

See SAP Parameter Documentation for full SAP documentation for this profile parameter.
