Hi, Jana. Thanks for reaching out with your question about using the Return key in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

Please know that there isn't a specific feature that sets up the "Return" or "Enter" key to save an entry. It is typically achieved through clicking on the "Save"or "Save and close" button. Clicking "Save and new" saves your work and at the same time opens a new entry form that allows you to enter new information.

 

You can also use the standard shortcuts provided by the software, like for example pressing Alt + S or Alt + Shift + S for Firefox and Chrome to save transactions.

 

For your reference, see this article: Keyboard shortcuts for QuickBooks Online. It provides information about the available shortcut keys that you can use to speed up your navigation. 

 

After saving your entries, you might want to generate a report to view your invoices or other sales forms to ensure their records and finances remain accurate.
