Hello Janerallsdancemanagement, thanks for adding your question to the QuickBooks Community. There have been a few queries on this thread. If you are referring to adding a training expense into QuickBooks Self Employed, the categories are set based on HMRC Self-Assessment form (see allowable/disallowable expenses in QuickBooks) currently therefore we have no plans to add the option to create your own categories. We do see you can claim as an allowable expense some training costs. We've included a help article on the existing categories, there is the option to record it under other business expenses if not other category is relevant. However, we'd always recommend as we are not trained accountants either confirming with an accountant or HMRC that they are happy with that. If HMRC confirm which box they want you to record the training expense under on the Self-assessment, you can use the guide included for allowable expenses to then add the transaction to the category that matches that box. We hope that clarifies how things currently stand.
