PPM ID number characters reduction

[Former Member]

hello PPM experts,

I would like to reduce the characters amount for the PPM ID (portfolio item) but I am not sure if I will do it in a way the others affected objects will have impact on it, eg:

I will do it by changing in SE 11 the data element "/RPM/TV_EXTID" from 24 to 9 characters but it will affect other ones:

what I would like to do is to reduce this field:

Please advice if this is the correct way to do it.

Thanks,

Hi Francesco, thanks for your reply. Is it possible to change the system behavior to do not insert on the item ID the year (2017) in the final numbers?

The option to have other ID custom field sounds nice, but I will need to have a complex coding due to the item will be transformed into a PPM project as well as a PS project, but I will check this option.

best regards,
