matrix item in rms 2.0

When creating a matrix item in 2.0, and selecting the option to show the dimensions of the size and color with the description, I get a error message that "itemlookup code or item description exeeds the allowed length. do you wish to continue truncating the lookup code or description." However with the old version I was able to do this. Is the description field more restricted in size?

Also it whould be easier to be able to enter the matrix reorder #,minimum order & case quantity when you create a matrx item, for now i have to do it with the wizard.

Does anybody know how to create an Hourly sales report, by day of week over a period of time. For example, I'd like to know what our sales are by hour on Saturdays from Jan-Mar (i.e. total sales on Saturdays from 10-11AM for the three month period). Hoping this will give us a better idea of whether or not our store hours should be adjusted. It's hard to look at them one day at a time on the Z reports. It would be much easier to analyze over a period of time.

Thank You, Jack

No, the description is still the same size - 30 characters. If your matrix generated descriptions exceeded 30 characters, they were always truncated, it just didn't warn you first.

less than 30 before or after adding the size/color matrix values to the base description? If you are creating multiple items and even one of them exceeds the limit after the detail values are added, you will see that message ("XXXL - Chartreuse" will cut pretty deeply into 30 characters:).

It's also possible that this is triggering from the itemlookupcode - that is limited to 25 characters.
