Organization Search
It would be nice when you click on Organization Search if the cursor would automatically go to Organization and you could tab to another box if you were searching by Tax ID, city or state. And to be able to click enter and not having to click your mouse down to Search.

Hi all,
Thanks for the feedback. In our next release - 5.16 - slated for early June, using the "Enter" key will once again trigger the search.
In regard to automatically putting the focus on the Organization text box (putting the cursor in it), we will be looking at that soon. I'd prefer to find a solution that we can use on other pages as well, rather than just fix this instance of the problem.
In regard to the feedback about the location of the primary action button (the Search button), there are multiple schools of user experience / design thought on button location. At the end of the day, I'm most concerned about consistency, and I recognize we are not as consistent as we could be in terms of button placement. That said, as we continue to add new features, we are also in the midst of a fairly significant rewrite of some of our user interface architecture. As we complete that rewrite, we will be stepping back to look at making a number of things, including button placement, more consistent.
As always, appreciate the feedback. Thanks!

When you are searching for an organization, instead of manually clicking enter with the mouse, give back the ability to just type organization name and hit enter on our keyboard.
Also WHY DID YOU MOVE THE SEARCH BUTTON TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE SCREEN ?

Please do fix this!!! It looks like the Search button moved all the way to the right side and now there is a Reset button where the Search button used to be? So now you not only have to click the Search button but move cursor all the way over. If you use Tab it is the last thing you get to!

I was just going to enter this idea but read it was suggested recently. It would save time and be super handy to have this function. I strongly agree with this idea.

Hi Cadence,
As you note, this did use to work. Currently, you *can* use the Tab key to cycle through the search boxes (Name, Tax ID, City, and State) to get the focus onto the "Search" button. Once the focus is there, you can use the Enter key.
However, I recognize this is a step backward. We will be revisiting this page to correct this issue, but at this point, we are still working on making our user interface more consistent. I'd guess this should be fixed in the next few months.
Thanks for your feedback,

I agree with this post! - this used to be a feature I think, but recently it changed to where you can't hit the Enter key for it to complete the search, you have to click it with your mouse :(
