Is it possible to expand the canned job quick menu list from 30 to possibly 40 or 50?

That list is hard coded to 30. I review my canned job usage report a few times a year and use it to modify what shows on the quick menu. Also, I augment the list for seasonal jobs like snow tire installs. Any larger and I'm afraid it will be longer than the screen.

I’ve always thought a quick menu by category or heading with an expandable side menu per heading would be a great upgrade. Maximizes screen space and allows for a more robust shortcut list. Time saver for sure!

Yeeessss. This may be a great idea. Mobile Manager has a similar setup when selecting labor. I like it!

Really like the idea of Category with drop down, that would solve my issue.

At the risk of revealing my ignorance, I have already used the inventory feature to add labor items. I realize that the inventory section is not exactly designed and configured for labor items but when my "Canned Jobs" list became full, I temporarily used the Inventory feature.

Thanks for the good features of the Shop Management program.

One of the recent updates added a feature for advanced quick can job menu. Found in the first screen after choosing the 'job' button IMO this feature is what was missing from the start. You now have categories and choose from there. For those who have a long list already this may take a bit of editing to categorize and sort as expected, but worth the time.
Apparently originally max in the menu is 30, but now each category maxes at 30. (IIRC).
