Reconcile Accounts: Click and drag to select (multiple) tick boxes

Bank Reconciliations would be one example, if you want to select a block of entries you have to manually select them one by one whereas in the classic versions it was click and drag, much quicker.

In old versions of MYOB, pre-AccountRight, you used to be able to select multiple items in a check box situation by simply clicking on the first one and dragging down or up.  For example, bank reconciliations, processing payroll, selecting accounts to report in GL reports, etc.  Now you have to click on each one separately (unless you want to select the whole lot). 

Please add the click and drag method option to AccountRight as it is very time consuming to tick off items one by one.

Could you please bring back the feature in the Reconciliation window whereby you can select/deselection the items by clicking and dragging down the column.  Where it was removed I have no idea.  This is so time consuming the way it is at the moment.

Whilst chatting to a MYOB specialist yesterday, we discussed how in the older MYOB's ie v 19 etc, you were able to select a few items when reconciling for example in Banking - Reconcile Accounts.

I have a few accounts that have several hundred entries and more. To allocate say 400 of 700 entries, I need to either select all and unselect indivually the 300 not to be allocated, or selected the 400 indiviually.

In the earlier versions, you were able to click on one entry and scroll down or hold down the arrow or something(can't quite remember the action), but the entry would highlight and be selected. This goes much quicker than ticking one box at a time.

Please can you help by updating this? I know we now have bank feed, but the banks are the least of my worry to allocate. They are not my biggest accounts requiring this reconcilation function.

I know your plates are full with the new Super function, but this would make reconcilations go so much quicker.

I would really appreciate it if you would look into this.

I came on here to also request this feature and this was the first topic I saw - I am glad I am not the only one finding this VERY FRUSTRATING.  Not having the group ticking function can add HOURS to the reconciliation process - having to tick one transaction at a time - especially working on line when it takes time to register each tick.  Please do something about this soon!!

Bringing this feture back would SAVE ME so much TIME

Please, please, please bring this feature back.  I create monthly reports from the Job P&L with selected job numbers - we have over 2000 job numbers.  Ticking each box has led to major frustration resulting in the consumption of large amounts of chocolate! 

Hi Leaph 

Thanks for the feedback in regards to the AccountRight program and the ticking of multiple fields/check boxes.
