Limit Street 1 and Street 2 characters Address card

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Is there a way in R2 CU7 to limit the number of characters for the street 1 (40), Street 2 (40) on the address card?  Since AX seems to lump street 1, 2, 3 all into one field for 250 char?  We are using for shipping labels and wanted to see if we could prevent going over the limit in the external application.  Thanks

    Hi,

    If you want the users to have the data entered in the current notes-type field it is possible with a customization.

    There is a statement to read line by line and then per line do some checks.

    In the past we had a customization where we could have 96 or 128 characters in such a field. We needed to cut off and place remaining details in a splitted line.

    Another way would be creating some street fields with a length of 40 charakters and combine these in the street field on saving.

    Note that all addresses are stored in one single table, so if you customizing in this area it would be applied to all addresses unless you can have a indicator when you want to restrict or not.
