SUMMER SAVINGS 90% OFF QuickBooks for 3 months* Ends June 27
Buy nowDear QB community:
We've had this issue in our company twice in the last 3 weeks or so where - as we go back to sales orders already entered in our system, a "customer: job not found" message pops up (photo attached). We do not want to add the customer because it already exists in our system. From there we can't make any changes on that specific order. QB does not even allow you to exit out - you have to literally force-quit the application. I would like to know what's possibly causing this problem. Our solution to this issue is restoring a recent backup and eventually either re-enter or transfer over all sales orders "damaged" into a clean/healthy restored file. Could someone please advise how we can avoid this issue in the future? Thanks in advance.
