Hi, because this is a system table, you cannot import it in the Configuration Package. Are you trying to import it in code?

If it's in code, try the standard method below.

In page 2011 "Entity Text Factbox Part":

Hope this can give you some hints.

Thanks.

Thank you very much ZHU, I thought so.
I am in the process of preparing all our products for the shopify connector and have quite a few long product descriptions that need to be added, so I saw it as an easier option than importing to extended texts where there can only be 100 characters in a line.
Only extended a few things with Visual studio code - don't you need developer license to do it in code?
But what I can do is copy and paste, copy and paste.... :)

If it is the Cloud (SaaS) version, no development license is required, and the object range of 50000~99999 is free.

The shopify connector is not available in the On-Pre version, so I think you should be using the SaaS version.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.

Many thanks ZHU for pointing in the right direction - yes we are on BC Cloud version 23.4.... - information I should have given in my question.

I have a sandbox test environment and the Visual Studio Code set up so I will google "how to" before and after your screenshot "If it's in code, try the standard method below.
