How do you PERMANENTLY change the order of the Bank account blocks on the "Banking" page?

A while back QBO decided to change the order of my bank accounts on the Banking page.  I had purposely named accounts in a way to ensure that the most consistently used account would be first alphabetically.  That worked for nearly 6 years.  Then one day QBO change the order the accounts appeared on the Banking page.   My account the starts with the letter "B" was now after the account that started with the letter "Q". 

 

*  I tried to "Reorder Accounts" using the drop down in the top left of the banking page, but the next day they were moved back Out Of Order. 

*  I tried renaming the account that started with a "U" to be "A_U...".  I still had to use the "Reorder Accounts" button to move the "B" account to the left of the page.  The next day, the "A_U" account was first on the left.

*  I tried renaming the account that started with a "U" to be "Z_U...".  Once again, I had to use the "Reorder Accounts" button to move the "B" account to the left of the page.  The next day, the "Z_U" account was first on the left.

This is completely ridiculous.  My cache and cookies clear every evening when I log out and my browser is fully up to date..

NOTE:  I have stated that:
1) Everything was right until one day...

2) I tried to use the program the way it appears to be intended, and that did not work.

3) My browser is updated, and my cache and cookies clear every day but the problem continues

THEREFORE:

If someone from QBO comes to this thread and posts some garbage canned answer about "clearing cookies", and/or using a "private window" or "another browser" it will be clear evidence that Intuit just thinks we are all stupid, and that their support staff is either AI, or completely incompetent.

It would be nice if they admitted their faults and just corrected the issue.  I fully expect the canned answer.

Hello there, MRusty.

 

I recognize the convenience of naming accounts alphabetically to identify them easily. Since you've posted a duplicate concern, my colleague has some information to share. Please check out this link to view it: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/reports-and-accounting/re-can-i-change-the-order-o...

That is cute.  Instead of just posting the canned answer, you post a link to one.  It is hard to understand why it is not completely obvious how useless that is.  It is especially useless when the support personnel in that thread gave up and punted (by telling the user to call the support line with their problem) when they were told their canned answer failed.


Also, just for fun, I previously tried calling support after the canned answers provided in this forum failed miserably.  I was completely insulted when they offered the same canned answer and treated me as if I did not know what I was doing.  In the end, they admitted there was no working solution for the issue.  When I have to consistently teach the first level support personnel, and in the end tell me that there is no solution and no planned effort for a solution, why would I call them for this?
