QBO's Bottoms-up Bank Register

The is no common language that is read from the bottom-up and it is a rare day when I open my bank register because I'd like to see the very first transaction I ever recorded. So please give me any logical reason that QBO opens all bank registers to the oldest transaction - requiring me to manually relocate to the latest transaction?

 

I must chalk it up to an overall complete disregard for the people that allow Intuit to continue operating their ignorant pious behemoth of a corporation that has outlived it's usefulness. It's hilarious they bother to feign a desire to know what improvements we'd like to see. How about a 5-year hiatus on adding useless features to focus on getting the software to actually work 1/2 as well as the desktop version they've kicked to the curb - along with this 25-year veteran user. I can't say RIP Intuit, but RIH seems appropriate.

Hello there.

 

I recognize that organizing the date in your Bank Register with QuickBooks Online is urgent, and I'm here to help you sort this out.

 

Unfortunately, we can't control the order in which transactions appear in QuickBooks but we can sort them by date to see the most recent ones first. To do this, just toggle on the Date header drop-down and make sure the arrow is pointing downward. This will sort the list from the latest to the oldest transactions.
