Hi @Dave_L,

I understand that you'll need to go to the sidebar menu to view and manage your transactions. I also recognize the inconvenience of navigating in to unfamiliar menu and buttons, that’s why I’ll share more clarification about QBO’s interface.

I’d like to know what QBO version you're using. I would also appreciate it if you can add some screenshots of your concern. This way, I'll be able to get on the same page and provide additional information.

The Accountant and Business view are the two ways to display your account. Each view has slight differences when you switch between them. See the screenshots below:

Additionally, we’re unable to revert the changes once an update is made to the user interface. Certain menus have also been renamed during the most recent update. For example, invoicing, customer and vendor-related transactions are now moved under Get paid and Pay. 

If you’re looking for the Transactions and Sales section, it was renamed to Banking and Invoicing. Not to worry, options and features are still the same.

I do agree with you that adding more customizations and functionality would make the program better and more flexible. We want to ensure our users get the most out of QuickBooks. With this, you'll want to send your idea to our developers about the changes made.

Here’s how:

1. Go to the Gear icon.
2. Under the Profile column, select Feedback.
3. Enter your suggestions, then click Next.

Please know that we’re unable to provide a specific time frame as to when this feature will be available. I also encourage you to visit our QuickBooks Blog page so you'll be updated on the program's new release features and enhancements.

For more sources and helpful links, please see our QuickBooks Help articles site. Simply enter a keyword of your concern on the search bar and the system will show related links you can use.

If you have further questions about customizing your menu bar, please leave a reply below. I'll be always around to help. More power to your business.
