Keyboard shortcuts

Kick has keyboard shortcuts to help you navigate the product and get through your work faster.

Command portal

Press Cmd (⌘) + K to open the command portal. From here you can search or type a command, navigate to any page, or trigger quick actions like adding an account, entity, transaction, task, or journal entry.

Global shortcuts

• Option (⌥) + H - Show all keyboard shortcuts
• Option (⌥) + S - Focus the search box on pages that have one
• Cmd (⌘) + K - Open the command portal
• Cmd (⌘) + B - Open / close left nav
• O then W - Open client workspace switcher (inside a client workspace)

Transactions tab shortcuts

The blue line to the left of a transaction row indicates the focused row.

Row shortcuts

Shortcut	Action
Enter or x	Select or deselect a transaction
Esc	Remove bulk select or exit current selection
⌘ + → / ←	Control pagination
↑ / ↓ or j / k	Move row focus up or down
Shift + A	Select or deselect all rows on the current page
Shift + ↑ / ↓	Select multiple transactions in bulk
⌘ + ↑ / ↓	Jump to first or last row
→ / ←	Open or close details panel
c	Open category selector for the focused row
m	Open memo editor for the focused row
e	Open entity selector for the focused row
g	Open cash ledger account editor for the focused row; falls back to the accrual ledger column when relevant

The c, m, e, and g keys act on the focused row only. They do nothing while transactions are selected, because bulk edits run through the command portal instead.

Command portal shortcuts

With transactions selected, press ⌘ + K to open the command portal. Type an action's letter to bring it to the top of the list, then press Enter.

Key	Action
T	Create task
C	Set category
V	Set counterparty
L	Set class
G	Set cash ledger
R	Revert cash ledger
A	Set accrual ledger
E	Set entity
M	Set memo
U	Unmatch all
S	Unsplit all

The portal only lists actions that apply to the current selection, so not every key is available every time. Revert cash ledger, for example, appears only when a selected transaction has a manually set cash ledger.

Journal entry editor shortcuts

⌘ + z	Undo last change
⌘ + c	Copy selected cell or row
⌘ + v	Paste into cell or row
Tab	Move to next cell horizontally
Drag fill handle	Drag to fill any field
= (in Amount cell)	Start an in-cell calculation (e.g., =1500-250)

Navigation shortcuts

These work inside a client workspace. They are not registered in the firm view, so they do nothing on Clients, Team, Templates, Billing, or other organization-level pages.

Shortcut	Navigates to
G then A	Accounts
G then B	Billing
G then C	Categories
G then D	Documents
G then F	Classes
G then G	General Ledger
G then H	Chart of Accounts
G then I	Invoicing
G then J	Reconciliation
G then K	Profit & Loss
G then L	Balance Sheet
G then M	Accounting
G then N	Trial Balance
G then Q	Tasks
G then R	Rules
G then S	Settings
G then T	Transactions
G then V	Counterparties
G then W	Insights
G then Y	Activity

Firm view

The firm view has a separate, smaller set, and these run through the command portal rather than as direct hotkeys. Press ⌘ + K, type the two letters, then press Enter.

Keys	Navigates to
G C	Clients
G T	Team
G B	Billing
G S	Settings

Billing and Settings appear only if your firm role gives you access to them.
