City Max String Length

Posted on by Community member

Hi,

I am trying to import my client list to Business Central, but for at least one of our customer, the city name exceed the max length of string for this box.

The city is Sainte-Catherine-de-la-Jacques-Cartier. Which is clearly longer than the max of 30 characters.

How can I change the max string length?

Thanks,

Unfortunately, as of now, there is no way to modify the length of a standard field. Unless adding a new field.

Maybe this is not a good way, you can put part of the City in Address.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
