The commitment scope in PJ, when creating a PO, only allows for 1,000 characters. Some of our PO's require a lot of detail and this makes it impossible and we end up having to create an additional document to attach with the PO. If this field was larger, we can write everything we need to and have it all in one document (even if multiple pages).

This would be great. Increase scope of work for number of characters in commitments. We are a general contractor and are scopes can easily run up to 3500 characters. We have been working around this, but have recently discovered your Document Designer (love it by the way) however we are unable to use this unless we can get the scope characters to increase.
There is another consideration for increasing the field size: other competing Project Management and Job Cost offerings have larger scope field sizes - a client of mine has stopped using PJ and is using another product to produce commitments and it's driving the accounting department crazy. I'm thinking that increasing the field size is worth keeping customers?
Agreed. We scope in Word, and then combine it with the file created from document designer. It's unfortunate that the current solution is not comprehensive.
