# Technical limitations

The following technical limitations apply to adding data into Phocas by any means:

* The maximum size of a dimension name is 255 characters.
* Only dates in the range of 1 Jan 2001 to 18 Sep 2090 are supported. While data outside this range can be included in a data import or sync, when a database is built, that data will be ignored.
