    I just discovered that the auto-complete feature is what broke the ability to use the enter key to move from vendor # to invoice #. If you go to User Maintenance, #3 Auto-Complete and uncheck the auto-complete for Vendor, you can use the enter key again. So, currently it appears to be an either/or proposition.

    I personally can live with this limitation as the auto complete feature has really stuck on me. At first, I couldn't believe they REALLY thought this was an enhancement but once it grows on you, it is really sweet!

    Great tip, @JaneCavanaugh. Contrary to what it says in the Sage KB, this is still an issue in v2015.2 (and NOT resolved with v2015). And why the heck doesn't it say anything about this workaround in the Sage KB? Oh wait, probably cause it doesn't want to be advertised that a new feature broke something that was working fine.

    Yes it does, @ThereseLogeais, but you know how ""people"" (""clients"") are. :)
