Customers and Jobs

[Benjamin Soffer (SLF)]

Good point, Katie.  I'm using GnuCash 2.6.10 on Windows 10 Home edition.

Thanks,
Ben

Hello,

You may have to say which version of GnuCash you're using:  I'm currently on
2.6.9 on Linux Mint 17.3, and I don't see this behaviour.
When I have selected the customer, I then only see jobs belonging to that
customer.

regards,

Katie
