Keyboard navigation

Move through invoices and queues without leaving the keyboard.

Work through your invoice queue without reaching for the mouse. On the Invoices screen, you can move between the list and the detail pane, jump to the main actions, and open the PDF using only the keyboard.

Move between invoices

Use and (arrow up / arrow down) to select the previous or next invoice in the list.

When you change the selected invoice, the detail side stays in focus so you can keep reviewing or editing.

Switch between list and detail

  • (arrow left): move focus to the invoice list (left).
  • (arrow right): move focus to the invoice detail (right).

The active area is highlighted so you can see whether you are working in the list or in the detail pane.

Tab through actions and fields

When the detail pane is active, keyboard focus starts on the main workflow action when it is available, for example Mark reviewed or Approve.

Press Tab to move forward through buttons and fields, and Shift + Tab to move backward.

Payment date

When you open the payment date editor:

  • Focus moves into the editor automatically.
  • Use Tab / Shift + Tab to move between the date, Clear, Cancel, and Save.

After you Save or Cancel, focus returns to the Creditor / debitor field when possible. If that field cannot receive focus (for example when it is read-only), focus returns to the payment date control so you stay in the invoice detail instead of jumping to the edge of the page.

Fullscreen PDF

ActionShortcut
Open fullscreen PDFZ
Close fullscreen PDFEsc

Z only works when you are not typing in a text field, so it will not interfere while you edit.

If Esc does not close the viewer (some browsers handle focus inside the PDF), use the Close control or click outside the viewer on the dimmed background.

Tips

Typing in a field. Arrow keys, Z, and panel shortcuts are ignored while your cursor is in an input, a text area, a dropdown, or a combobox, so normal typing and field shortcuts keep working.

Fullscreen PDF. If focus is inside the PDF, try Esc first. Use Close or a click on the backdrop if needed.

New invoice. You can drop invoices anywhere on the payables or receivables screen to upload them. You can also press Space to open the new invoice screen and Esc to close it.
