I've had the column width and column display sequence complaint for YEARS in QB Enterprise.

Intuitively it should work like excel where you change a column width and it stays that way.  Or you re-sequence the display (such as in the vendor window) and it stays that way.  I waste countless hours each week just formatting the windows in QB rather than doing my actual work all because I cannot fully see the info that is needed for our record keeping.  And why can't you even get the PO # or the memo field in the bill pay window?  The vendor reference # is meaningless to me - I need to see OUR record #, especially when I have a vendor with multiple PO's at once.  

I just don't get why it's so difficult for Intuit/QB to make a few of those boxes wider.  For example - I cannot see the full payment terms or the full customer contact info in those fixed fields, so I have to bring it up in a completely different program from QB or highlight and copy/paste into where it's needed next (also not easy to do when the window is so small).  Why are those fixed fields so narrow and can't be widened?  And it always shrinks the PO # field in the vendor screen and I MUST have that on the memo line in order to tie it to the record I'm working on when notating a bill or cutting a check.  I've tried moving the PO# to the left and I still have to constantly re-size it and the next time I log in I have to start all over again.

Beyond frustrating.
