I agree wholeheartedly.  How difficult is this "fix" and why has a company like QB not yet managed to make it happen?  We are new to QB in the last two months and so far my experience is NOT what they sold me on.  Until some of these issues are corrected, I cannot recommend QBO for construction firms or subcontractors.  I wish Id have stuck with my gut and purchased the QB Desktop for Contractors.  It's too bad, because the issues I've identified really should not be difficult to correct.  I don't want to use a third party app.  I'm already using QB, QB Payroll, and Tsheets.  Three is enough.
