I've got you covered, Meghann and H20Rules. I'll make sure you get the search bar working in QuickBooks Online (QBO) so you can continue with your task.

The unexpected behavior you're experiencing when typing in the customer's name in the search bar could be due to corrupted cache files in your browser. Let's perform basic troubleshooting steps to isolate the issue. Start by opening your QBO account in a private or incognito window. Here are the keyboard shortcuts:

• Ctrl+ Shift + N for Google Chrome
• Ctrl + Shift + P for Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Edge
• Command + Shift + N for Safari

If it fixes the issue, return to your default search engine and clear its cache. Clearing it will refresh the system so you can work with a clean slate. Alternatively, you can use other compatible browsers to help rectify the issue. 

In the meantime, you can manually go to the Customers' window and locate your customer's name from the list to perform different transactions. Here's how:

1. Go to Customers & leads and choose Customers.
2. Locate the customer's name in the list. 
3. Tap the dropdown arrow in the ACTION column and choose what specific task you want to accomplish.
