I am definitely on the most current version.

I will try the verify rebuild utility tool and see if it helps.  Of course, I will have to do this individually for all 20 of my company files, so it'll take a while to see if it's the fix.

You have misunderstood my issue re: the payee name.  It has nothing to do with anything QB is filling in via a "rule".  Something in the functioning is messed up.  QB fills in the first name on the vendor list starting with the first letter I type and then SKIPS TO THE END of the vendor name as if I have accepted/pressed tab to select that vendor.  This doesn't happen 70% of the time.  It works just fine a lot, allowing me to type in the vendor name letter after letter until I enter or tab to accept that vendor name.  Then sometimes it freaks out and stops doing that. So 30% of the time it chooses the vendor for me, enters it completely, puts my cursor at the end of the name and I have delete all the incorrect letters type the next, then delete all the incorrect ones of the next vendor that happens to start with those 2 first letter, etc.  Or use the drop down menu exclusively to fill in my vendor.  Once I switch to another company file or close QB completely and reopen, it has usually fixed this and won't do it again for a while.

I have the exact same issue and it drives me CRAZY.  On my downloaded transactions, when the payee does not autofill.  I start typing the vendor name and QB automatically enters a vendor with the same first letter than I have to backspace to delete that vendor and attempt to do it again. Most of the time, it does the same thing again so I have to enter the correct vendor after the filled in vendor and then delete all of the other letters.

I am having this same issue and have been for months.  Takes forever to import transactions and then when I start typing the vendor (known vendors in my list) it autofills with account names, not vendors.  I can't find a resolution online so I manually copy and paste each one to get around it.  Terribly slow but I also do not want to switch to the online. version.  

The same thing is happening to me and it's bogging down my system and making me go at a snails pace. Does anyone have a fix for this this issue?

Hello, have you found a fix to this problem?  My issue is under the "account" name feature.  I type in the first letter of an account on my list, and the text replacement fills in a vendor name not an account name.

Hello there, Vincent. Thanks for coming back to the thread and clarifying what you're using.

In QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), having the option to have the QuickBooks tool hub for Mac is unavailable. Please note that the QBDT tool hub is designed and used for Windows operating systems.

However, since you're using a Mac, we can verify and rebuild data in your company file. This process resolves errors and other issues in the software. To do this, please follow the steps below.

1. Go to the File menu.
2. Select Utilities.
3. Choose Verify Data, then click OK to close all windows.

If there are still problems with your company file, you'll have to rebuild it.

Here's how:

1. Go to the File, then click Utilities.
   • Choose Rebuild Data, then select OK to close all windows.QuickBooks will ask you to make a backup before rebuilding your company file, select OK. If you don’t want to do a backup, choose Cancel to continue rebuilding your company file. If you haven’t set up any backup preferences, QuickBooks will ask you to update them. Click the Backup Preferences and edit as needed, then select OK.
   • When the backup's finished, select Show in Finder to locate the backup or select OK if you’re done.
2. Once the rebuild's finished, select OK.
