ADC - first 5 letters of a drug name during product searches

We are about to take the upgrade from our ADC vendor in order to be able to require ISMP's recommended 5 letter minimum. If you have implemented this functionality in your organization, would you be able to share your lessons learned? Please message me if you are willing to share.
Thanks much!
