Keyboard Shortcuts
Command palette
Press Ctrl+K (Windows / Linux), ⌘K (Mac), or Alt+Q from anywhere in the app to open the command palette — all three are equivalent global shortcuts for the same search.
![Command palette opens with a search box and grouped results]
The command palette lets you navigate the entire platform without touching the mouse.
What you can search
| Category | Searchable fields |
|---|---|
| Customers | Name, phone, email |
| Vendors | Name, phone |
| Jobs | Job ID, client name |
| Invoices | Invoice number, client name |
| Quotations | Quote number, client name |
| Clearing | Bill of lading, manifest number, customer name |
| Drivers | Name, license number, phone |
| Vehicles | Registration number, make, model |
| Pages | Any page or section name (e.g. "billing", "settings", "trucks") |
You only see results your modules and permissions allow — for example, Vendors results need permission to manage vendors, and Job results need permission to view jobs.
How to use it
- Press Ctrl+K / ⌘K / Alt+Q to open
- Start typing — results appear immediately, grouped by type
- Use ↑ ↓ arrow keys to move through results
- Press Enter to open the selected record
- Press Escape (or click outside) to close
If you open the palette without typing anything, it shows every page/section your account can reach (the exact count depends on your active modules and permissions). Press ↓ then Enter to jump to any section instantly.
Selecting a result
- Customer / Vendor / Driver / Vehicle — opens the full-page detail card directly
- Job — opens the job detail view
- Clearing declaration — opens the declaration detail
- Invoice / Quotation — navigates to that module's list view
- Page — jumps to that page (e.g. Billing)
Searchable lists
Fields that pick from a list that keeps growing — customers, vendors, items, GL accounts, employees, and similar — open a searchable list instead of a plain dropdown. Click the field, or tab to it and use the keyboard:
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| Start typing | Opens the list and searches as you type |
| ↓, Enter, Space, or F4 | Opens the list |
| ↑ ↓ | Moves through the results |
| Enter | Picks the highlighted result |
| Escape | Closes the list without changing the field |
| Tab | Closes the list and moves to the next field |
| Delete or Backspace | Clears the field (only on fields that can be left empty, which also show a ✕) |
Search matches any word you type, in any order, across the name and the extra details shown on each row (such as code, phone, or balance). The list shows up to 100 matches at a time — keep typing to narrow it down.
Some lists have a + New button at the bottom (for example + New Customer), shown only if you're allowed to create that kind of record. It opens a short form, pre-filled with whatever you typed, and puts the new record straight into the field. In that form, Enter saves and Escape cancels.
Other shortcuts
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
| Escape | Close the command palette, a searchable list, or a + New form |
| Ctrl+K / ⌘K / Alt+Q | Toggle command palette |
The search box in the top navigation bar is just a shortcut to the command palette — clicking it opens the same search described above rather than a separate inline search.
