Thanks David - I'm not really sure how useful Jobs will be, but it is a little confusing, and appears tp be a singular list of Jobs but each job is tagged as either a Vendor Job or a Customer Job. Thanks again for your input - I'm learning as I go. Thx for the tip on the double search too - I'm going to try that out. :)

However the Find Jobs dialog does not seem to distinguish between customer and vendor jobs. If you enter a search term (anything will do, e.g. "*"), hit Find ( returns nothing or anything matching what you entered) and then hit Find again all jobs are listed. (This shifts the radio button on the left to the refine search option after doing a new search which returns all the jobs both customer and vendor). I could not find this behavior documented anywhere, but I presume it does a regex search to match any character on the second Find. You can also select "matches regex" instead of "contains in the search option and enter "." in the text field as documented in the find documentation referenced below, however I find the double Find is quicker than altering the search citeria ( at least for a small number of customers/vendors/jobs). You cannot allocate a vendor job to a customer invoice as the find jobs dialog for setting the job in the invoice edit dialog is limited to customer jobs (and I presume similarly for Bills /vendor jobs but I have not tested this). The Find behavior is documented at https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v2.6/C/gnucash-help/busnss-ar-customers1.html#b usnss-ar-custfind2 in the Help Manual.
