Hello there, @margeplas. I'll be glad to help you create custom categories for your transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE).

 

To create custom categories, you'll need to enable the QuickBooks Labs in QBSE. 

 

To do that:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon.
  2. Select Labs under Tools.
  3. Click Turn it on to open the Manage Categories window.
  4. In the Business Categories dropdown, choose a category and click Add a Custom Category.

 

However, if you're unable to access the QuickBooks Labs in QBSE, I recommend sending your valuable feedback to our software engineers. This way, they can include this feature in your QBSE account. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Invoices and open an invoice.
  2. Click Feedback in the upper-right corner.
  3. Enter your feature request, then Next.

 

Furthermore, you can run financial reports in QBSE to get detailed information about business finances.

 

Keep in touch if you have other questions about categories in QBSE. We're always here to assist you further. Take care, and have a good one.
