Buy nowIn QBO ADV, you cannot directly control the order of appearance of custom fields from the "Manage Custom Fields" section because QBO ADV automatically determines the order based on how the fields were added and currently does not provide a feature to explicitly rearrange them; you can only choose which forms the custom fields appear on and not their exact placement within the form layout.
In short, "Not drag-and-drop functionality" and "Field creation order matters" from the "Manage Custom Fields" section.
Any thoughts about it?
Thanks!

QuickBooks Desktop is soooo much better!
Thanks for getting in touch with the Community, MLom. I appreciate your detailed information.
I can certainly understand how an ability to control the order of how custom fields appear on sales forms could be useful and have submitted a suggestion about it as of today.

We are so pleased that you understand the obvious. Why your QuickBooks Online designers don't is a complete mystery.
But you should have written is useful, not could be useful.
QuickBooks Desktop has had this capability for at least 20 years, probably longer, because it's utterly obvious to everyone that it's useful and that QuickBooks customers want control over how their sales forms print.
Yes this is much needed for QBO!!!
