Category Field and Category System

Problem

In a few cases, Goldenseal would not use the correct Category System to fill categories into the Category and Subcategory fields.

This would happen with Material Purchases made for inventory, and possibly in a few other cases. The problems are caused by subtle changes that were introduced about a year ago, when we started using the More Info windows for some fields.

Caught By

User bug report, Turtle Creek testing.

Workaround

If you leave a record and come back, Goldenseal small business software will fill in the correct categories.

Solution

Goldenseal accounting software 3.6 fixes a couple of general problems related to Category fields. The category fill-in has frequently been problematic, but we think we have finally tracked down the last of the glitches.
