I don't recall which version it changed in (anyone else?) but you should
also check the setting mentioned in Adrien's message which can be found in
Edit / Preferences / Business / Accumulate splits on post
is yours ticked / checked or not? Adrien or someone else that actively
uses the Business functions will be better able to help with the
consequences of changing that.
What OS are you on and how did you upgrade last time that resulted in a
mess? I'm sure someone will help you with upgrading cleanly regardless.

I'm running version 5.14. The description auto-completes to match the
last similar entry. I don't get a list to choose from. I have been
hesitant to upgrade to a newer version, since installing this version
was such a mess and I didn't have time or patience for another bout of
the same. If upgrading will get me what I need, then I will go for it.

What version are you using? I ask because it sounds like you may
have a
version that pre-dates the current autocomplete list that provides a
list to pick from as you type in the description.
