How do I change the column width on a journal entry

Welcome to the Community, @sukasu

Let me guide you through the process of adjusting column widths in a journal entry. 

Here's how to manually adjust the column width:
 

  1. Hover your cursor over the line separating the column.

 2.  When the cursor changes to a two-sided arrow, click, hold, and drag the line left or right to adjust the width of the column
 3. Release the mouse when the column is at your desired width.

If you need additional assistance. Feel free to reach out at any time. We’re here to help.
