I created a New test file in R52.20. In that New file:
- I created one Business checking account
- I created an A/R account ("Customer Invoices")
- I added the "Create Invoice" icon to the Quicken Toolbar
- I clicked the "Create Invoice" icon in the Toolbar and was taken directly
to the "New Customer Invoice" form in the "Customer Invoices" account
- I exited the New Customer Invoice form
- I created a second A/R account ("Customer Invoices 2")
- I clicked the "Create Invoice" icon in the Toolbar and was presented
with a dropdown to select the desired A/R account.
Selecting either account took me directly to the "
New Customer Invoice" form in the selected account
- I deleted the A/R account "Customer Invoices 2"
- I clicked the "Create Invoice" icon in the Toolbar, and was taken directly
to the "New Customer Invoice" form in the only remaining A/R account,
the "Customer Invoices" account
I assume that is the result you would like to get ... but are not.
Frankly, I don't have any good ideas to explain why
you would not get the same result I did.
I'm assuming that you truly "deleted" your second invoice account
(rather than just "hiding" it).
When you say
"How do I delete the BLANK invoice account as a choice here?"
[emphasis added], that is a bit concerning.
If the account is really deleted,
there should be no "blank" choice in the Create Invoice dropdown.
You could try Validating (and SuperValidating).
