Hi UNHAPPY5
Welcome to the MYOB Community Forum, I hope you'll find it a wealth of knowledge.
MYOB Business does not allow to increase in the character limit. Currently, the Company Name field is limited to a set of characters in 49 characters including spaces. If you do have a name that is longer than that, my recommendation would be to look into abbreviating the name where possible. i.e Use bldg. instead of Building, Const. instead of construction.
However, you could use the description to put a longer name. The description allows you to have up to 255 characters. and for the customer name it allows 8-13 characters.
I hope this help. Please feel free to post again. I'm happy to assist you further.
