Suggestion: base the name on location, unless there are other factors. Special Characters in Office/Branch Names: While hyphens (-) and parentheses () are acceptable in office/branch names, other special characters such as +, /, @, #, and ^ should be avoided. Using these symbols can potentially cause issues with third-party integrations if those systems don't properly strip or handle special characters. To ensure maximum compatibility across all integrated platforms, stick to alphanumeric characters, spaces, hyphens, and parentheses when naming offices or branches. | |
