Question

Cannot enter numbers into a particular field in split transaction mode

This is a weird issue I am having and I think I need technical support but do not know where to go to ask. I am trying to categorize transactions using the split feature. I am able to complete all fields except enter a numerical value in the "Amount" Field and I cannot type an entry into the "description" field. I can enter numbers in other parts of QB, such as issuing a check. I screen shared with my colleague and I am doing the same steps she is but I cannot type a number or even copy and paste a number into the field to allocate the correct transaction amount. The field is not greyed out. And I see a blinking cursor in the field showing the field is open and active.

 

I have tried using different browsers; Chrome, Edge, Safari. I have restarted my computer. I have checked number lock. I have used a laptop keyboard and a 10 key keypad. I even tried logging in using my husbands computer. I also saw a post recommending trying again in "incognito mode". No luck.

 

Do you know if there is a setting in QB that might be enabled or disabled that I am missing or that I set somehow locking me out of the fields? The admin changed my permissions from "Standard all access" to "admin" and that hasn't solved my issue. 

 

Any other ideas? Thanks!
