auto search in payee
Dear Admin, please see the screenshot I have attached.
Before the update when I write in the payee input, it gives me suggestions based on my previous data entry e.g., in my first entry, I entered "Max Mart" in the payee's name and when I entered 2nd entry I type "M" in payee line it automatically gives me drop-down suggestions mentioning "Max Mart".
With this feature, the Payee name will remain the same and duplication errors will be less. I can easily manage my Receivable/Payable account with this feature now i have to copy the payee name from the previous transaction and paste it to the new one to avoid Duplication and get the accuracy of individual closing balances.
Hopefully, I have made myself clear now if not kindly email me at ahmad.awan88@gmail.com for further clarity
Thanks
fixed - will be in release v8.5.311

This was available in version v8.5.221 and it was the most important feature for me, and it was gone after the update.
Now I copy-paste the payee's name from previous record to avoid duplicates. 😔 😢

Previously there was auto suggestion drop down list of historically used payees, but this was not able to be amended, so if you accidentally made a spelling mistake with a payee & then added the correctly spelt payee there would now be two payees of the same name (one correct spelling one incorrect) - it wasn't possible to delete the incorrectly spelt payee - even if you went through all transaction records & amended the incorrectly spelt payee to the correct one.
Now - the drop down list of historical payees to choose from no longer appears as you type in the first letters of a payee - as Ahmad says a drop down list obviates the chances of inconsistencies of multiple payees for the same payee
