I'm here to help you with the categories for your P&L, @candre-585.

 

1. Go to Accounting from the panel on the left. 

2. Click the New button from the top right. 

3. Choose the Category Type

4. Select the Detail Type

5. Type out what you'd like the account to be named. 

6. You can enter a description if you'd like to, but it isn't required. 

7. Pick Save and Close

 

Now, for the categories to show up on the P&L correctly, you'll need to make sure you tag the correct account when creating transactions. 

 

Please feel free to post again or reply to this thread if you have any other questions. Thanks for reaching out to the Community! Have a great day.
