    Thanks for your feedback, Elma. Our product team is paying close attention to this and exploring ways to improve the experience for users working on smaller screens or using split-screen layouts.

    The Account and Description columns are responsive, so widening your view will expand these columns and provide more visibility. We understand, though, that this may depend on your individual setup and processes.

    I’ve updated the title of your idea to reflect your request for a compact view, which will help us track interest in this improvement.

    Regarding the date formatting, dates in manual journals are localised. We recommend checking your browser’s default language and region settings and, if needed, updating them to match your location. For example, selecting English (New Zealand), English (Australia), or English (United Kingdom) will allow you to enter dates in the DDMMYYYY format.

    Thanks for taking the time to suggest this, Julia. A flexible column sizing and multi-line descriptions could make working with detailed manual journals more efficient, especially when reviewing longer entries.

    I’ve updated the status to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community interest. If this would improve your workflow, add your vote and share your use case.

    These journals are ridiculous - how on earth did the update that makes entering the journal more time consuming and annoying when there was previously nothing wrong with them become an 'improvement' - get your act together Xero - did you not get anyone to test these out first!! And the suggested workaround i got was to enter my journals in excel and import - wow!!
