Increase Character Limit on Org Names

Organizations have longer and longer names - we need them to be accommodated in the database.

    Agreed! It is very important to be able to enter complete information.

    Agreed! It makes much more sense for Blackbuad to increase the Org Name field than for the user to have to create alternate aliases to pull the Org's full name when running reports, mailings, or recognition files.

    Ditto - alias is difficult to get into contact addresses, etc.

    I agree. It would be great to enter an organization's complete name.

    Suggestion regarding the length of the organization name field. Unfortunately, this is a field that is hard coded in the Raisers Edge and is not something that can be changed. I personally need a minimum of 100 characters for full entry of some constituent names

    Agreed - once you add a unit, division department to an organization name, it often exceeds 60 characters. Either this field should be expanded to accommodate at least 100 characters, or another field should be created for "Department" or "Division."
