Hi,

Trying to upload a template document to Dynamics and received this error.

Error creating template: A validation error occurred: The length of the 'description' attribute of the 'documenttemplate' entity exceeded maximum allowed length of '100'.

There is a "description" column as a field in our Quote entity. We previously created a business rule which sets this field to a string of text that is slightly over 100 characters. This quote "description" field has a maximum length of 200 and I am not convinced that this is the issue. I am wondering if there is a way to edit the 'documenttemplate' entity's attributes to increase the maximum allowed length.

Thanks!

Hi,

Try opening the default solution by going to settings - customization - customize the system - Then find documenttemplaye entity and update length of description field
