Features: Save time with an easier, faster search. Locate accounts, items and clients faster by typing in part of a name and having QuickBooks automatically fill in the rest.

Previous year’s versions of QuickBooks Desktop would display only instances where the exact characters typed would match, beginning with the first few characters in the name.

With QuickBooks 2017, when a user begins typing a list name, QuickBooks will display a filtered drop-down list of those occurrences, where the beginning of the words matches with the characters typed.

After typing a few characters, the list of matches displays. QuickBooks users can use the arrow keys on a windows keyboard to efficiently select the appropriate list name.
