[Vtigercrm-developers] vtiger_inventoryproductrel: comment vs description

[Alan Lord]

I've been working on migrating a customer's old vtiger 5,4 system to 
version 7.

We noticed that some of the line item comments were getting truncated. 
Further investigation showed this to be present in the original system 
anyway. The "comment" column was a varchar with a length of 1500 chars.

In version 7 this column is type text (it gets changed in the 6.4.0 to 
6.5.0 migration) so that's OK.

But I noticed that in this table, next to the comment column is a column 
called "description" - this was already a type "text" in vtiger 5.4.0.

But in all the systems I have examined at this column only ever seems to 
contain nulls. So what is it's purpose?

TIA
