Question

How can I enter a vendor name (or other names) that is longer than 46 characters (blank space included in the name) long?

Since Quickbooks will only accept a certain # of characters in the vendor name (or names in other list), the name will be truncated even in the cheques that we issue. Lately, the bank had rejected those cheques. Is there a way to enter names that are 46 characters (including blank space in the name) long?

 

Thanks!

Hey there, PPMCKC.

 

Thanks for reaching out to me here. I'd be happy to provide some information.

 

Currently the character limitations for customers, suppliers and other, is 41 as noted in this article. If you would like to see this expanded in future updates, please don't hesitate to submit a suggestion to our Development team. In the interim, I suggest removing the spaces in keeping within the limitation guidelines. I realize this is a temporary workaround, but it's important that you're able to record and track your transactions, in keeping your books well maintained.

 

Feel free to reach back out if you have any other questions.
