What is the maximum length of the externalid field?

&gt;*AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):*
The maximum length of the `externalid` field in NetSuite can vary depending on the type of record it is associated with. For most transactions, the limit is 60 characters. However, for some other types of records, it can be as high as 244 characters. It's always a good idea to test this in your specific context to confirm the exact limit.
