Increase Purchase Invoice Number field length

Please can you increase the maximum character length ofthe Purchase Invoice number field. A customer has requested that the field length be increased to match the Invoice Number length created by companies such as Amazon. This Sage 200 field is limited to 20 characters, but Amazon Invoice numbers are normally longer than this. The customer is currently truncating the Purchase Invoice number as below:- Original Amazon invoice number : INV-GB-117866131-2021-459061 This is being amended/truncated to: 1178661312021-459065 Many thanks in advance!

Fixed in version 2024 R2

Amazon invoices frequently have more than 20 characters as reference so we have to amend before we can import to PL as an invoice.
