QBP: Number Coding Categories (aka Chart of Accounts) [edited]

Reposting this as an idea/request to see if this can get some traction. I'm new to Quicken Business & Personal (QBP as I see it referred to by many of you long-time users!). I'm evaluating options to switch my businesses' accounting systems and I REALLY like QBP and think it could ALMOST support my business needs. There's just one glaring omission that is holding me from moving forward - an actual chart of accounts.

It's not helpful to organize/arrange categories alphabetically for businesses. And there's also the issue of some hard-coded categories not being able to be deleted (which it appears that is changing within the month?).

Enter the "chart of accounts" - a standard accounting principle that assigns numeric codes to categories that the system can then sort in descending order, thereby creating a desired structure.

This is a standard in the accounting industry and I think QBP's innovative and highly usable UI would make me a convert if we could at least get this feature built out. Any chance this is in the works? 🤞🙏

    @DryHeat, it looks like one of the moderators merged/deleted my initial post about this topic. I got a notification that you commented on that one before they removed it, so tagging you here in case you'd like to repost your comment. Thanks!

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
