Hi there, Jude. QuickBooks Self-Employed tracks your transactions without a traditional Chart of Accounts, so the “250 Chart of Accounts limit” only applies to QuickBooks Online subscriptions.
If you want to create or modify an account for more detailed tracking of income and expenses, you would need to upgrade to a QuickBooks Online subscription, which includes a full Chart of Accounts.
