When entering an expense is it possible for the category to be defaulted from the supplier?

Hello leanne-farrell-t,

In QuickBooks Online, you can assign a default expense category for a supplier when setting them up in QuickBooks Online.  Here's how to assign the category in the supplier details.

1. Click on the Expenses tab and choose Suppliers.
2. Locate and click the supplier's name.
3. Click on Edit.
4. Scroll down and locate the Default expense category.
5. Click on Save.

Once done, create a dummy bill or expense to see the default category assigned for this supplier.
