Is there a way to prevent the Description field in a Journal Entry from repeating on the next line?

I enter a different description for each line of my Journal entry. When I enter the description on the first line it automatically copies to the next line and I have to delete it to enter the new information. Is there a way to turn off that copy feature?

Thank you for sharing your observation, theclip.

 

Right now, QBO doesn't have an option to stop copying the description from the previous line. I see that this is not always ideal for certain journal entries, so I recommend sending feedback. This way, our engineers can add an option in future updates.

 

  1. Click on the Gear icon.
  2. Choose Feedback.
  3. Enter your suggestion and click Next.
