Help Tab at bottom with field-specific data entry narrative

znpwt0

The Help Tab at the bottom of the screen when in the Details Tab for data entry has for many years had a very useful field-by-field narrative to assist in the specifics of what type of information is expected in each field that you click on.  The 2021 version no longer includes that beneficial assistance as confirmed in an hour-long conversation with Jakara.  To discontinue this amazing functionality is baffling to me.  I would be very sorry to see Lacerte discontinue this amazing feature that in which they have so much invested.

If you hit "F1" while on the field in question, the same information that was in the Help tab pops up. I too was disappointed, but this actually takes up less room and I now prefer it.
