Keyboard shortcuts
Work faster with the keyboard: search, save, close, help and barcode entry all have keys.
Steps
- Press Ctrl+K (Cmd+K on Mac) anywhere in the app to open search; ↑ ↓ to choose and Enter to open.
- On any create / edit form press Ctrl+S (Cmd+S) to save, Esc to close the form, Tab to move between fields.
- In a product, customer or document search box use ↑ ↓ to highlight a row and Enter to pick it.
- In the product search of a document, type or scan a barcode or part number and press Enter to add it straight away.
- Press F1, or ? outside a text field, to open help for the current page; press it again or Esc to close.
Tips
- Esc first closes an open dialog or dropdown; only when nothing is open does it close the form (and asks if there are unsaved changes).
- A USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner types into the focused box and sends Enter, so scanning works in documents, “Scan barcode” and the POS without extra setup.
- In quick-create dialogs (new customer, expense category…) Enter in a field saves the dialog.
- In the messages inbox Enter sends and Shift+Enter starts a new line.
- On the POS just scan: the item is added even when the barcode / search box is not focused (but not while you type in another box or a window is open). The on-screen keypad’s Enter / Tender button confirms the amount.
- Right-click a row in any list for View, Edit and Delete / Restore.
In the app, press F1 or ? on this screen to open this guide next to your work.
