when start software - default the date to today

If I close AG Expert, then open it the next day - the default date is the last transaction I made. SHouldn't it default to the current date when opening a window for the first time?

    I would like the date to be the last date I used, not the last date I used the program. I have done a dozen transactions, 2 will have Nov 13, then 2 with the 14 and then some will be the 18. I have to change the date every time as it reverts back to Nov 10 which would be the last day I input data before I went online again on the 19th. Very annoying.

    Thanks for the question. The date defaults to the last transaction date entered by design and at the request of users during testing. The feedback at the time was that users preferred to enter their transactions in date order so defaulting to the last date used resulted in an increased efficiency for them. If that feedback changes then we're always happy to take direction and make changes. If you have peers that feel the same as you do, please forward them a link to this posting and have them vote it up. Thanks again! 🙂
