Did QuickBooks legitimately remove the ability to resize columns?

Hello there, Please_Stop_The_Modern_View. 

Let's turn around your worries on finding a solution to your problem by resizing your columns to be able to see your chosen category on the transaction you created.

Considering that you are already on your Expense page or any transaction page, we can fully see your category names by hovering your Arrow icon on the line between the Category and Description and then dragging it to the left and right to adjust the column box.

I am leaving you these articles that discuss various things you can do with your expenses in QBO:

• Enter and manage expenses in QuickBooks Online
• Enter a billable Expense in QuickBooks Online

If you have other concerns regarding your expenses on QBO, let me know by adding a comment below. I’m only a post away. Keep safe!

I was having this same issue today, it worked perfectly fine last week! I took the suggestion I saw on another post. Clearing my cache and browsing history resolved the issue. I can now resize my columns again. I hope this helps!

I'm having the same issue.  Even if I resize them they change back when I leave the screen and then go back into another bill/expense.  It's crazy that QBO can't leave things alone and all this modernization is killing my workflow.
I also cannot leave the vendor bill or expense screen by save & close.  I have to close the entire tab to get out of it.  All of this started a couple of weeks ago and nothing helps.

YES I DID THE FOLLOWING:

• clear cache/cookies
• restart
• clear history

all the things that software providers say to do have been done

None of this helps and I'm wasting tons of time trying to get things done.
