    We distribute AV equipment and our supplier's part numbers run to 32 characters and more, for example DB-UniStream-Br-4KHDMI-PCB1-KUTX. With a 30-character limit we cannot use the real part number as the item code, so we shorten it and keep the full code in the Name field. The shortened code then no longer matches the supplier's documents when we check bills, serial lists and purchase orders, and some lines end up with no item at all. Please increase the limit to at least 50 characters.
