Expand Item Cross Reference field

Chris Maske on 1/29/2019 12:18:24 PM
We use Item Cross Reference numbers to sync our item numbers with our customers item numbers. The problem is that this field is only 20 characters today and many of our customers are having longer item numbers. If this field can be extended to 50 characters we would avoid this problem.

Why is this posted as completed when the Item Cross Reference field is still limited to 20 characters?

I reported the following **bug** which was labeled as "Won't fix" referring to this idea:
"Vendor Item No." was updated from length 20 to length 50 in multiple tables including the Item table and Item Vendor table.
The field "Cross-Reference No." in the "Item Cross Reference" table is still length 20 which could lead to an overflow.
