A shortcut to see your information more clearly
Sometimes information can be hard to see, for example, if you've got a long list of customers or if you need to check the payments you've received. To make it easier, you can resize a column so you can get a clearer view of the information on your page.
To get rid of the blank space in columns and make them narrower, all you need to do is use your mouse to double-click where the columns meet in the heading row.

Save time adding lines to purchase invoices with this shortcut
If you have multiple recurring lines in purchase invoices, you can save time by loading them into the purchase invoice automatically. Then all you need to do is enter the amounts. Speak to your partner about setting this up.
How to save data without a save button
When you've finished adding data or want to close a page, you're probably used to looking for a SAVE button. But there’s no SAVE button in Wiise.
Don’t worry – the record you're working on is created or updated as soon as you tab to the next field. There’s also a notification when the record has been saved, at the top right of the window - it says Saved.
If you've created a record incorrectly, Wiise will let you know with an error message so you can re-enter the information.
Get more done with this multitasking shortcut
If you’re working on multiple tasks at a time or dealing with interruptions like taking calls, you can open a new card or document page in a new window. This will let you keep a window open for your ongoing task while you start or complete another task in another window.
- To open the current card or document you're working on in a new window, press Alt+Shift+W.
- Or select the square pop-out page icon, next to Saved in the top right corner of the document.
You'll now be able to move between tasks in different windows and hopefully be even more efficient at managing your day!
How to easily copy and paste your data
If you’re copying a list of inventory items to a sales invoice, copy and paste will do the job quickly.
You can copy one or more rows from a list or a single field on a page, and then paste what you copied into the same page, another page, or an external document (like Microsoft Excel and Outlook email).
- To copy, highlight the field, line or lines and press CTRL+C (cmd+C in macOS).
- Then to paste, press CTRL+V (cmd+V in macOS) in the new page or document.
