New Invoicing - Typeable dates in Date fields
On the old invoices/bills I could type "18/2/23" and it would auto fill 18th February 2023. Now I have to scroll back multiple months to get there. It would be good if I could type in the date field boxes again. Specifically on "Add Payment"

What's more, requiring mouse input means that this is not Accessible to anyone who doesn't use a mouse (for example, me both times I had wrist surgery. Or someone who uses a screen reader instead)

On the awful new invoicing layout, you can't type the date anymore, you can only click through the calendar. It is so much quicker and easier to be able to type the date like you used to be able to (and in any format... i.e. 03.05.24 or 03.05 or 03.05.2024 or 03/05/24 or 03/05 or 03/05/2024)

Moving towards inefficient entry methods makes my blood boil.
A developer sets it up, thinks it 'looks nice' and moves along.
Whereas we, the end user, could be entering a large number of invoices in one batch into the system and to have to switch between keyboard and mouse when a simple tab or number entry would hasten input is important.
Time is money.
Each excessive keypress or hand movement costs us time and therefore money.
Please THINK about your end user.

Agreed - being forced to use a mouse to use a dropdown calendar is an inefficiency compared to using a keyboard to type dates.

Dropdown calendar is an additional burden in New Invoicing. Please revert to classic invoicing style for this field.

In Old Invoicing for the date field you could type in +0 or +7 for the due date but in new Invoicing you aren't able to do this.
Please bring back this feature back as it saves time -

When entering payments on New Invoicing it would be better to be able to overtype payment date rather than selecting the date from the calendar dropdown. It takes too long to do it like this. You can overtype on Old Invoicing.
