26. Bruce’s Tip Stop
Date Entry
When processing multiple
transactions for a specific
date change the user date.
Date on transaction entry windows defaults to
user date on the left. Did you know that you
can use the plus and minus keys to increment
or decrement? Did you know that for the
current month you only need to type in the
day? For instance 15 would return 2/15/14.
