How do I get rid of the drop down box and instead make it a search field?

edited Jan 3, 2020 1:27AM in Search / Reporting 5 comments

I have two NS accounts (both SB).

On my one account, if I'm at the (for example) Deposit -> Other Deposit -> Payor, it's a box that I type in and it then works like the global search and limits the selection down to what I've typed.

On my other account I cannot type in the box and instead it's a drop down.  Worst is it's not even in alpha order, instead it goes by customers in the customer # order (which means nothing to us) and the vendors below that.

Is there a way to change our one account to work like the other account and not using the drop down boxes in places like that.  I just used the above place in an example, but it happens throughout the system (the drop down box instead of a search field).

Howdy, Stranger!
