Maximum length of the text field increases automatically on Data import in CRM

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I have an Excel file to import in MS Dynamics CRM 365.

In that file, there is a text field column that contains data of maximum 11 characters. In CRM, the maximum length of that field is 10 characters.

Instead of restricting such records from importing, CRM automatically increases the maximum length of the field in CRM to 11 characters.

So how can we set not to customize the field max length on data import in CRM?

    You can't - you'd better off just raising the length ahead of time.
