Keyboard shortcuts

Search and jump anywhere with Command K, and move between a client's sections with G and a letter.

A few keys save a lot of clicking. None of them fire while you're typing in a box, so they never get in the way.

How do I open search from anywhere?

Press Command K on a Mac or Ctrl K on Windows. When you're not typing in a box, the slash key works too.

  1. Start typing a client, contact, job or page name.
  2. Use the up and down arrows to pick a result.
  3. Press Enter to open it. Press Escape to close search.

Search can also start things: type "new" to find New client, or "invite" for Invite a teammate.

How do I jump between a client's sections?

On a client's page, press G, let go, then press the section's key within a second or so. Hover any section on the left to see its key.

  • G then O: Overview
  • G then 0: Details
  • G then C: Contacts
  • G then 2: Structure
  • G then 1: Notes
  • G then M: Comms
  • G then 8: Company secretarial

What are the keys for work and billing?

  • G then J: Jobs
  • G then B: Obligations
  • G then Q: Requests
  • G then S: Signatures
  • G then D: Documents
  • G then 6: AML/CTF
  • G then T: Time
  • G then V: Billing
  • G then U: Statement of account

What are the keys for books?

  • G then R: Books & advisers
  • G then 4: Sales & purchases
  • G then K: Bank
  • G then L: Ledger
  • G then E: Reports
  • G then H: Variances
  • G then A: Assets
  • G then F: Statements
  • G then W: Workpapers
  • G then 3: Import books

What are the keys for tax?

  • G then X: Income tax
  • G then 9: Checklist & deductions
  • G then Y: Activity statements
  • G then I: PAYG instalments
  • G then Z: FBT
  • G then P: TPAR
  • G then N: Franking account
  • G then 7: Division 7A
  • G then 5: Super caps

A key only works for sections the client has. A franking account shows for companies, for example, so G then N does nothing on a person.

Are there any other shortcuts?

  • In a client's bank reconciliation, J and K move down and up the lines.
  • When you're writing a reply to a client's question, Command Enter or Ctrl Enter sends it.
