Hi there, @allegroatthehelm.

 

Yes, you can add a new expense category from the Chart of Accounts. I'm here to guide you with the details.

 

  1. Sign in to your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account.
  2. Click on Accounting at the left pane, then select Chart of Accounts.
  3. Tap on New.
  4. Set the account type and detail type.
  5. Input the account name.
  6. Hit on the Save and Close button.

 

I'm adding this link for additional resources while handling your accounts in QBO: Learn about the chart of accounts in QuickBooks.

 

Once done, you'll now be able to use the account when recording your transactions. For more tips, while handling your expenses and other supplier entries, you can check out this article: Enter expenses, pay bills, and manage suppliers.

 

On the other hand, you can also check out this link to learn more about grouping your products and services into categories in the future: Group your products and services into different categories.

 

Please feel free to leave a comment below if you have any other questions about adding a new expense category in QuickBooks. I'm always here to help. Keep safe!
