I need to add an account for employee training. What Detail/Type should I use for this, nothing seems to match the intent.

Hi Gregor,

Step 1: Go to Settings ⚙ and select Chart of Accounts.

Step 2: Select New to create a new account.

Step 3: In the Account Type ▼ dropdown, choose an account type.

Step 4: In the Detail Type, select the detail type that best fits the transactions you want to track.

Step 5: Give your new account a name.

Step 6: Add a description

Step 7: If this is a sub-account of an existing account, select Is sub-account and then enter the parent account.

Choose when you want to start tracking your finances. In the Balance field, enter the amount in the account, and determine the as of date. Enter today's date if you want to start tracking immediately.
