Hi slhiltz,
Thanks for connecting with us here. I can understand the benefits of having the ability to edit tabs within specific areas of your books. However, these are set by default in QuickBooks Online, and cannot be changed. Please don't hesitate to submit a suggestion to our Development Team, for future updates and feature improvements, if you would like to see additional options and setting functionality. Recommendations are greatly appreciated, in assisting us with improving your overall experience with QuickBooks Online.
Feel free to reach back out with other questions. We would be glad to help!
