It would be really handy if the item name could be longer than 30 characters, if we could have a maximum of 50 characters it would make life much easier.
I know that you can select to use the description instead but this doesn't show up everywhere in MYOB and sometimes we need that space for other information. We have over 5000 different items in our file and 30 words is just not enough most of the time.

"Item name length needs to be longer"
We require a greater amount of characters in the Item name box for our inventory. Some of our items have drawing numbers ( several characters long), a description and a length and we cannot fit all the information in the small box provided. Can this rectified please? It is important that we clearly show the
"Increase character limit in Item Name field in Inventory"
"In the Namefield, type the name of the new item."
The field is not long enough to describe some items especially when having to add drawing numbers or codes.
When will MYOB fix this problem?
Please vote for this so that it will be noticed and something done about it.
I agree the name length is too short.
Also additional name description fields would be handy ie Name1, Name2, Name3. We do books so additonal fields for authors and subjects are needed to be printed on customer library invoices.
You can do this if you use the Description field on the Items Details tab and tick the Use Description box.
You could also link a picture of the book on this page.

Hello Global,
You could also use the Custom List fields for entering the additional info.
Rename the fields from 1,2 & 3 in the Lists menu to
Author
Subject / Genre
Publisher
of what ever suits
and the Custom Lists for variables such as
ISBN
Lib Ref
etc.
all this can be setup to print on the invoice.
Hope this helps.
Cheers
David
Would really love to see the Item Name extended, would make life so much easier
Wanting Item number and Item name extended. This would make things easier as we can have matching numbers and names as our overseas suppliers. This will allow us to order directly from MYOB as we are now manually creating orders on Publisher.
This is a NO BRAINER! We have many items, half of them longer than the allocated space. It is absolutely INFURIATING having to copy and paste text EVERY SINGLE TIME we do an invoice because of the character restriction. MYOB has a reputation for slow evolution, which is why people are flocking to Xero in droves. Please stop considering it and just do it. As soon as possible. Begging you. Please!!!!!!!
