Or just use e-mail instead of Nabble? (or I’m sure something like uBlock Origin could zap those windows before they come into existence)

I just opened a new file, chose the default ‘common accounts’ which did not include A/R and A/P and sure enough, the “Business” menu is visible as was the “New Invoice” button. (I didn’t go through the trouble of creating an invoice or bill and seeing what would happen)

This was not always the case, certainly not at some point in the 2.6 series. I distinctly remember having to ‘enable business features’ to both get the Business menu as well as making the New Invoice button visible. I think doing so also created the special A/R and A/P accounts in my tree.

Perhaps the business features which were originally an add-on module were finally integrated into the main program at some point.
