Question

Unable to Search for Items by Description

Please refer to the attached image.

In the past, when creating invoices, I could see the product description alongside the product/service name. Additionally, I could find items by typing in the description within the 'product/service' field.

I typically input the item code in the 'product/service' field and the actual item name in the 'description' field. With a large number of items, it's currently impossible for me to locate items solely by their codes.

This issue arose after a recent update to the invoice interface.

Is anyone else experiencing the same problem?
