Is there any option to trim for required length in CWF Message Set.

For eg:
There is a field called "Name" in Output MRM (CWF format):
Name Length(15) String

In esql:
OutputRoot.MRM.Name = InputRoot.MRM.XXX.Name

Since Input MRM is a XML format it can be of any length i.e. more than 15

If the input is more than 15, the above line throws exception due to exceeding the length in CWF.

To avoid this it can be coded as:
OutputRoot.MRM.Name = Substring(InputRoot.MRM.XXX.Name from 1 for 15)

I have more fields like this, do I need to use Substring for each field.
I would like to know instead of controlling thru coding, is there any properties in message set to trim for required length.
