Last time, I wrote about the Find Transactions feature and different ways to look at your desktop. I mentioned before that I tend to be impatient on the computer. I frequently have 1 hand on the keyboard and the other on the mouse so I can do whatever is quickest! Today I’d like to give you keystroke tips – and they all use the Ctrl key.
| Ctrl | Open QuickBooks without a company file |
| Ctrl + A | Open Chart of Accounts |
| Ctrl + C | Copy |
| Ctrl + D | Delete check invoice transaction or item from list |
| Ctrl + F | Find transaction |
| Ctrl + G | Go to register of transfer account |
| Ctrl + H | History of A/R or A/P transaction |
| Ctrl + I | Create Invoice |
| Ctrl + J | Open Customer Center/(Customers:Jobs list) |
| Ctrl + L | Open List (for current drop-down menu) |
| Ctrl + M | Memorize transaction or report |
| Ctrl + N | New invoice, bill, check, or list item in context |
| Ctrl + P | |
| Ctrl + Q | QuickReport on transaction or list item |
| Ctrl + R | Open Register (bank, A/R, A/P, anything with a balance) |
| Ctrl + S | Show list |
| Ctrl + T | Open Memorized Transaction list |
| Ctrl + V | Paste (Windows technique) |
| Ctrl + Y | Shows the journal entry for the transaction |
So which one is your favorite?
