Hi nomoreptteachmt,
Welcome and thank you for posting about your item's sequence. I'll share information about it.
I see the convenience on your part if there's an option to rearrange the order of the items. However, this is currently not a feature in QuickBooks. I suggest sharing your suggestion from your company file, so our development team will know that you like this option.
- Click on Help and choose Send Feedback Online.

- (Optional) Enter your name and email address.
- Choose Send Feedback.
On the other hand, you can check out the articles for QuickBooks Desktop on the main support page if you need references in the future.

Let me know if you have other queries about QuickBooks. Take care and have a good one!
