Item Code Field size

[Former Member]

Hi!

Is there a way to increase the Item Code field size? I believe it is 20 characters. Can it be increased to a higher size, say, 35 characters?

Hi Prajwal Kashyap,

The length of item code is designed in background as 20 characters and cannot be changed from front end, even with add-on/SDK.

If it is really necessary for your customer to change the definition, please kindly refer to Note 1028874 regarding missing functionality for datails and log a message providing Business Impact.

Even with SDK programming you cannot increase the Field Size.

Prajwal,

You cannot increase the size to more than 20 characters. As a workaround you can either give it in item description or with the help of UDF do the same.

Can the field size be increased using SDK Programming?

This is crucial for the B1 system to work in the company.

As a work around use item description to codify item code,it has max characters limit of 100.

The maximum size for ItemCode is 20 Characters. You cannot increase it further.

If you want it to be increased, you can post a thread in the "SAP Business One Product Development Collaboration" Forum in the following link:
