Can I use the enter button for QB Online or do I always have to use the mouse

Hello alida2,

 

This is a great question. I remember we were speaking a while ago when you were still using QuickBooks Desktop, which gives you the option to complete certain tasks by simply hitting Enter. I can appreciate wanting that same easy use for QuickBooks Online. I'm happy to go over this with you.

 

While you can't save in QuickBooks Online, our cloud platform does have a number of keyboard shortcuts to take advantage of to limit your mouse usage. You can bring up these shortcuts by pressing CTRL + ALT/Option + ? on your keyboard or see them by visiting this link: Keyboard shortcuts for Quickbooks Online. Here's a screenshot of what it looks like this when you bring it up using CRTL + ALT/Option + ? in your account.

 

 

As you can see, the window I have here also shows you your company ID. If you ever get in touch with support, this is a quick way to bring up that information. I've blanked out the number from this account, but yours would appear in the orange box.

 

Try the shortcuts out to see if you prefer the them or the mouse. If you have other shortcuts you'd like to suggest for us to add, leave us some feedback by following the steps outlined here: How do I submit feedback?

 

Have a great rest of your day!
