Look at View/Master Lists/Location
select any location and click EDIT
you will see a Location field and underneath it is a Short Location
field.
The Short Location is identical to the Location unless YOU change it. On
screens and reports you can choose to use the Short Location. You may want
to do this since it is easier to read.
Example:
Mount Pleasant, Cabarrus County, North Carolina, USA
vs
Mt Pleasant, NC

Subject: [LegacyUG] Long names & short names
List,
On several occasions I have seen references to "Long name locations and
Short name locations". Could someone explain what these are and
when/where/why/how they are used?
Thanks,
Bill Rhodes
