    This is more of a data entry thing. When entering account numbers either in a journal entry or in accounts payable I do not need a drop down list of accounts automatically. If I need to look up a number let me ask for assistance (like the database version) then assist me. If I am trying to be efficient and move on to the next field the program often overrides the number I entered and selects the first one on the drop down list. Thus making me spend MORE TIME... NOT LESS... to go back and fix it. This forced validation requires me to tab through the field and that doesn't always keep the number I entered but usually does. The automatic drop down list requires me to move from keyboard to mouse to select an account and then back to keyboard. THIS IS NOT A TIME SAVER AND IT INCREASES ERRORS. Maybe an option for a beginner but for those that know their chart of accounts well, this is just downright painful and frustrating.
