If entering say a new purchase, and I type in a Job Number which has not been created yet, I then click "New..." to open the dialog box and create that new Job Number.
I tab down and enter the job name, and then use the mouse to click Ok. (it would by 8 more tab presses to use the keyboard).
This closes the dialog box, but has deleted the new job number from where I was typing it.
So the job number needs to be typed again.
I've used MYOB for about 10 years, and then had a break for a couple of years. I'm back and using the AccountRight Cloud version - I'm sure I didnt have to do this in the past?
This behaviour seems typical where ever a job number is created.
The procedure thats launching the "New Job" form should pass the calling form name as an argument. And when the New Job form is closed, it should pass this data back to that calling form. If the calling form still has the focus on the same Job field, it should populate it with the data.
