Question
Why is every aspect of the QB "search" feature completely useless? Every few months I forget that the magnifying glass is just a portal to frustration and unhappiness.
It doesn't work the way it should for any category on any page for any type of transaction, report, etc. No, I'm afraid I can't send another screenshot or further explanation of my problem. Yes, I know that I can manually go in every time and troubleshoot the basic search tool, and I can create a series of detailed search parameters and exclusions that eventually bring up a few items I was searching for--an aggravating procedure that takes just as much time as manually going through every transaction to find the word I'm looking for. (And I can always find it this manual way, eventually. It's always there--that's the thing. Always right there. Exactly as I typed it in the "search" tool. Except the search tool only seems to discover these words: "We couldn't find any transactions that match your search.") Oh well. Maybe I'll finally remember this for next time. Maybe next time I'll overcome the temptation to click the little glass, and instead reserve that hope for something else entirely.
