I have some information to share with you about the Find feature in QuickBooks, @ranbyb2004.

The Find feature is used to easily locate the information you’ve recorded in QuickBooks Desktop. In order to view the details you need, you’ll have to enter the common term or character used in the Memo field. This way, all related transactions that contain that word or figures will show up in the list. Please know that QuickBooks will only be based on the information you entered. So yes, the said option will only find the exact match.

Since you want to find "steel square" or "steel 1inch square" or "steel tubing square.” Just enter “Square” or “Steel” in the Search field so QuickBooks will display transactions that have Square and Steel in the memo.

Here’s how:

1. Go to the Edit menu, then click Find.
2. Select the Advanced tab.
3. Under Filter, select Memo.
4. Enter "Square" or "Steel" in the Memo Search field.
