We need to extend the 'Customer, Vendor, and Other Names' field to 60 characters. The names we handle exceed the 41 characters allowed and cannot be abbreviated or shortened due to billing issues and BCP.

The limitation in this field is causing issues when interfacing between QB and AceSuite, as it is not possible to register the full name in QB.

It's a good idea to have the option to enter more than 41 characters for customers, vendors, and names in QuickBooks Desktop, @AAJD. While this feature isn't currently available, I recommend sharing your feedback with our product engineers, as they may consider it for future updates. I can assist you with that process below.
 

Here's how:
 

  1. Open your QuickBooks Desktop, and navigate to the Help icon in the upper right corner of your screen.
  2. Select Send Feedback Online.
  3. Choose Product Suggestion.
  4. Enter the necessary details including your product suggestion below.
  5. Click Send feedback.
