Hello,
I am trying to increase the length of the description field in Nav (under item card) but I do know that the description on item card gets used/mapped to other tables too. Does someone know all the tables that it reflects it to as I'll have to change the character length there too.
Thank you
I would also not recommend to extend the length of the standard field. In the end, you can of course identify all the other tables and fields where it is populated (but it might be a painful process and risky), but there are also report layouts (like invoice) which might be messed, as well as the search by name option will degrade in performance quite soon. As others have said, it will also cause future updates and upgrades difficulties.
Hi, personally, I do not recommend modifying the standard field length, which will cause trouble in future upgrades. And the existing fields are connected to a lot of different places. This can cause a lot of errors that you can't imagine.
You should add a new field.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
