I appreciate your prompt notification regarding this matter, Nickf1. I recognize that selecting an expense category is essential for accurately entering and managing expense data for your daily business transactions.

 

The missing expense categories are likely caused by a synchronization issue or an outdated mobile application version. To address this, I'd like to provide several troubleshooting steps to assist you in resolving the problem.

 

We need to refresh the app data to bring back the missing categories on iOS and Android devices. Here's how to do it on iOS and Android devices: 

 

iOS

 

  1. Go to Settings, then tap General.
  2. Tap iPhone Storage, then tap the QuickBooks Online app.
  3. Tap Offload App. This will free up the storage without deleting your app's documents and data.

 

Android:

 

  1. Go to Menu ☰, then tap More Options ⋮.
  2. Tap Settings, then Refresh Data.
  3. Tap YES to confirm.

 

We also ensure that your mobile app is updated to the latest version. To do this, open the Google Play Store or Apple App Store on your mobile device and update the app. 

 

Alternatively, we can uninstall and reinstall the mobile app to solve the issue.

 

Nevertheless, you can compare the features of mobile apps and review QuickBooks Online on mobile devices to understand the supported features.
