report name character limit

[Casey12]

I have noticed that a character limit applies to report names.  How can I determine this limit from my instance's configuration?

I noticed that, at the time of giving a report a name, no warning or message is thrown indicating that I have gone over the limit.  Only when I return to the list view of reports do I see that the name was truncated.  This can catch people off guard if they are not aware that it is happening.

Hi,

In OOB, it's 100.

while giving the report name it will take more than 100, however the report will display only 100 characters.

you can find it by opening any report and select configure dictionary on the Title field.

Mark my answer as correct or helpful if it helped.

Hello Casey,

If you need to allow for longer report names:

1. Go to "sys_report.list".

2. Open any record.

3. Right click on the "Title" field and click on "Configure Dictionary".

4. Edit the "Max Length" field and set the desired value. Save the new value.
