Manually assigning a company ID
If you prefer not to have the system assign the company code, manually enter an ID in the Company ID field before you save. The maximum length is eight alphanumeric characters.
Note: If you make entries in the Name and the City, State fields before you enter the ID, the system will automatically add the first three characters of the company name and the first three of the city to the ID field. However, you can click in the field and manually enter the ID. If you save without manually recording the ID, the system-generated ID will be used.
