Hello - I would like to create my own expense category in SELF EMPLOYED app. How do I do this? I have read the function is possible in other subscriptions but cannot find for SELF EMPLOYED. Thank you
Hi @carynv,
Welcome to the Community. I can provide some clarification about adding expenses in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE).
The categories in the system are patterned after the categories provided by the HMRC As of now, the option to add new categories in the program is unavailable.
Please note that the Self-Employed version doesn't have an Accounting menu or Chart of Accounts, like QBO. This is the reason why you can't create another category.
While we assess this, I want you to be the first to hear about the latest QuickBooks innovations, so I’m including an article to view the details: Firm of the Future.
You can also check the following article for more information about custom categories: Custom categories in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
Drop me a comment below if you have any other questions concerning the categories. I'll be more than happy to help. Wishing you a good one.
