Topic: Add new GL account / Customer / Supplier / Inventory Item

It would be great to be able to add new GL accounts , Customer accounts, Supplier accounts and Inventory items "on the fly" without having to leave a processing screen to go to a set up screen.

For example I'm making a direct payment and discover part way thru that there is no GL account for my transaction set up.  I need to leave my processing screen and loose info already input to go to a set up screen to add the new GL account.

Such a function would make user experience better.

Hello MarkAndrew,

Please make a forum search with the word hotkey.

There should be hotkeys for customer, branch, supplier and items.

I am out of office right now, but you should find them. For customers it is F2.

These hotkeys can be used where there are respective fields in the forms.

Thanks Joe

I found the info on Hot Keys at
https://frontaccounting.com/fawiki/index.php?n=Devel.HotkeysAssignmentInFA

It would be very useful to have one to add a new GL account on the fly.
Perhaps this feature could be added to next update.
Again, not being a programmer I can't do that.

Mark
