Why is the invoice search function so broken?

I totally get it, CMP. There's nothing like the peace of mind that comes with accurate books. To locate that specific entry, you can isolate transactions by visiting the specific customer's profile. This ensures you are viewing a filtered history exclusive to that customer.

You can follow the steps below:

1. Head over to All Apps, and select Customers found in the Customer Hub.
2. Select the customer's profile related to the invoice you're trying to locate.
3. Go to the Transaction List and locate the Date dropdown at the upper section of the entry lists, Set the filter to match the timeframe of the invoice you're looking for.

If the issue persists, you can try logging in to your account using a private or incognito window. This method prevents storing browser data, which can help resolve temporary issues. Alternatively, you may also consider switching to a different compatible browser to ensure proper functionality. 

Let me know how it works for you. 

Hi there. This is in the mobile iphone app, so there is no possibility of using incognito or private browsing mode. And this response still doesn’t address the issue of why the search function no longer works. 

Thank you for those additional details, cmpvilela.
