I notice your reference is older than the tab combination, so that can’t be when it happened. But it’s still fairly recent. There are other threads that suggest it used to be different, but none are specific enough to really answer the question:

> [@Contacts autocomplete in bank transactions](https://forum.manager.io/t/contacts-autocomplete-in-bank-transactions/2364/7):

> Yeah, it’s just autocomplete for convenience. When you start typing into Payee field, Manager will look up what has been typed in there before to offer some suggestions. I think suggestions are even sorted by frequency by which they have been used so very rarely used contacts shouldn’t pop up too often once you have some history. Is that a problem?

> [@Removing obsolete entries from autocomplete](https://forum.manager.io/t/removing-obsolete-entries-from-autocomplete/6680/2):
>
> Autocomplete options should be sorted by when they’ve been used last time. The older ones should be at the bottom. They will be eventually pushed out of the view.

In this one (and the responses that follow), several regular forum contributors are trying to guess how the program works:

> [@Inactive suppliers are still showing in my autocomplete lists](https://forum.manager.io/t/inactive-suppliers-are-still-showing-in-my-autocomplete-lists/8140/8):
>
> Maybe it depends on where you go in the program. I am having the issue when I go to cash accounts, spend money and then when I type in the payee field I am getting suppliers that have long since been made inactive! Its not the drop downs that I am having the issue.
