Why do QB consider short-term loan as an "operating" activity in CFS?

The only thing I can think of is that "operations" is classified as short term, a year or less

Thanks for replying. 

However, according mg knowledge, standard CFS rules state that ALL loans - short or long term - are reported under "financing" activity section, NOT "operating" one.

And my question is about real situation I found in my cash flow statement in QB online (3 short term loans are recorded in "operating" section!) 

Still I am waiting someone to explain why this occurred jn QB CFS despite the 3 short-term loans were recorded properly as loan payable (current liabilities account)

Thank you one again for your participation in this conversation.

My observation is that you'd have to make it long term in the settings. Then I selected Other for the tax (which I'm concerned with), but I totally agree with you.
