Hey mate, Did you ever work this out?
I have EXACLTY the same issue where the entity i need to invoice is longer than MYOB allow (This NEVER happened until the most recent "update")..........Lest call it a "downdate" !!!!
They mention adding more the "description" area, which doesnt even exist on my version !!!!
Cheers

No, apparently they are aware and working on it. Ever so slowly tho. My solution for well used company names ie recurring was to shorten the name to something that was easily recognisable so It cut down my search time. I deal with several companies with different cost centres so in the interim its the best I can do. Still not ideal
Hi Roz4,
Thank you for your post. We apologize for not being able to get back to you right away.
As MYOB Business has limitations in the company name field, which only has a set of 49 characters including spaces, the current workaround is to shorten the name by abbreviating each name. I encouraged you to post on our Product Ideas Board to forward this feedback for developers to review.
We always appreciate your suggestions and feedback. Rest assured that we'll pass on your feedback to the relevant team.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Cheers,
Princess
