I could be mistaken, but I think a bug report was already filed on this.
(It may have just been a list discussion though)
I tend to agree. The 'Edit' buttons that appear next to the
Vendor/Customer and Job do not 'speak' to me as allowing me to edit the
details of the Vendor/Customer or Job assigned, but rather edit the
field that contains *which* Vendor/Customer or Job is *assigned* to the
Invoice/Bill.
I only know these buttons work this way because I've long ago been
bitten by this poor context. I'm in the same bucket as the others who
interpreted those buttons differently than the designer(s) intended.
There are other ways to edit those details. I'd vote for removing the
buttons entirely.
Regards,
Adrien

At least two of us users have been confused when editing / fixing Vendor or
Customer field in Invoices or Bills

I would request for the next GnuCash update:
All fields in the Invoice's "Invoice Information" & "Billing Information" panels, and in the Bill's
"Bill Information" & "Billing Information" panels be
locked, and maybe, grayed out.
That would force using the "Edit Invoice" or "Edit Bill" features in the top
ribbon, which work exactly as users (at least 2 of us....) would expect.
Thank you for the consideration,
Eric
