Join nowMy company works with many customers and creates jobs for each new project we enter into with the customer.
We have been doing this for years and had no problems setting up jobs for each customer until today.
When trying to set up a job for one particular customer, the job number appears under a different customer. I have tried numerous times and each time I get the same result: I create a job under customer A and when I save it, the job number appears under Customer B.
I have not tried with other customers, just A and the recipient is always the same B.
Can someone explain why this is happening?

Hello, ambosscorp.
I have an idea on what's going on with the job issue. I also have a solution on how we can fix this.

Before doing this, switch to single-user mode. Click the File menu, then choose Switch to Single-User mode. Let's also ensure to update QuickBooks to the latest release to avoid issues in the program.
To re-sort your list:
Next, create a new job again and check to see if it appears under the correct customer profile.
