entering bills tabbing to vendor box is SO TEDIOUS

When entering a bill or a vendor credit, the cursor used to START in the vendor box. A couple months ago that stopped functioning and now the way it "works" is that you either mouse to the box and click (tedious) or hit tab multiple times to get to the vendor box (also tedious.) I have been told in this forum that this is the way it's supposed to work. Well, it didn't used to work that way. And if this is considered functional... I have some news for you Quickbooks, it is not functional. I've been advised to SHARE FEEDBACK with the engineers, which I have done many, many times. I don't have time to share feedback that no one is reading or paying attention to. I don't have time to post in this forum multiple times. I don't have time to hit tab SIX TIMES each time I need to enter a bill. I don't have time for just how bad Quickbooks Online is. Sadly they make it impossible to revert back to QB desktop and keep all your historical info, so I am trapped using this terrible program. Please, fix this problem Quickbooks!

I also get disappointed if I am to experience the same, @pennyd.

 

I can see that you've been able to create bills quickly recently just by tabbing. Knowing that this had beneficially increased productivity, I've also submitted my feedback about this experience to show my support for my past users a month ago. Please know that these recent changes may have come to improve the design and system navigation due to other users' previous feedback.

 

Since you have already submitted your feedback, consider checking the QuickBooks Online Apps center to look for a third-party application to help you enter bills swiftly for now.

 

You can reference this guide to slightly boost your navigation about the shortcuts available in the system: Keyboard shortcuts for QuickBooks Online.

 

Please let me know if you have some hurdles with recording other transactions. I'm still here to help. Take care always.

Please know that tabbing through 6 boxes to get to the vendor input box is NOT "creating bills quickly." It is a modification I've had to make due to whatever shoddy "upgrade" led to the cursor not starting in Vendor box from the beginning. Also I find it remarkable that a third party app would be required to make processes run more smoothly. Goes to show you what a terrible product QBO is.
