The maximum input length of various address fields throughout BBS have been increased to allow for more than 40 characters per line.
Note: Where possible, users should attempt to keep customer, supplier and location addresses to a maximum of 40 characters per line to ensure the entire name and address is visible on all paperwork.

When saving the customer or delivery address, users will receive a warning if the name or address is longer than 40 characters:
