== Introduction ==
The '''Deals and Accounts number field''' in ActiveCampaign provides an efficient way to manage numerical values associated with your deals and accounts. Understanding its limitations is crucial for effective data management and integrity. This feature is particularly important for those using numerical fields within their workflow, especially when importing data from external sources.

Specifically, the numeric entry in this field is limited to a maximum of '''7 digits''', meaning that any number entered must be less than 10 million (i.e., 9,999,999). Staying within this limit ensures smooth operations and prevents errors, especially during data imports and integrations.

3. Locate or create a deal where you want to input the number field.
