Question

How do I re-sort the Names lists in Reckon Accounts?

Answer

What is happening?

• Lists appear out of order
• New entries appear at the top of the list
• Reports appear out of order
• Name filter drop-down auto-fill not working in the Advanced Find.

One or more of your Reckon Accounts lists may be out of order and need to be resorted.

To do this:

1. Close any application running on the computer
2. If you currently have Reckon Accounts open, exit/close the software and re-open Reckon Accounts and select the data file you wish to perform the verify and rebuild
3. Open the Write Cheques window ( go to Banking menu > Write Cheques or press Ctrl + W)
4. Click into the Pay to the Order field on the cheque form so that the cursor is flashing
5. Press Ctrl + L on your keyboard to display the Names List
6. At the bottom of the list, select the check box Include Inactive or Show All
7. From the View menu, select Re-sort List. Click OK to the message that follows
8. Go to the List menu and select Chart of Accounts
9. From the View menu, select Re-sort List. Click OK to the message that follows.
10. Repeat this process with the remainder of the List menu, including Customer and Supplier Profile Lists sub-menu.
