When in the process of inputting expenses, the amount is deleted prior to saving the expense

Thanks for joining the Community space, @christopher11_2 walking. Allow me to share some ideas, so you can save your expenses.

Did you get any specific error messages when saving the expenses? Additional information about this concern will help us look for the right solution in solving the problem.

In the meantime, let’s perform some basic troubleshooting steps to make sure the issue isn’t browser-related. Local internet cache files may be the reason for this unexpected behavior. 

Let’s start logging in to QuickBooks using a private window. Here’s how:

•  Command + Shift + N (Safari)

•  Ctrl+ Shift + N (Google Chrome)

•  Ctrl + Shift + P (Mozilla Firefox)

If you're able to save it, go back to your regular browser and clear the cache. If the same thing happens, use another supported browser. It could be that the one you're currently using has a temporary issue with QuickBooks.
