It's good to see you posting your concern here in the Community space, Joshua.
I'll share information about managing your account type and categories in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE).
Changing the account type and creating a new expense category in QBSE isn't possible. In line with this, I'd like to ask if you'd like to categorize from the Transactions page. If so, here's how:
- Find the transaction you want to edit.
- Click the ▼ icon to expand the transaction.
- Edit the transaction name, add notes, or attach a receipt.
- To change the category, select the link in the Type or Category column. Then, choose a new category.
- Once done, select Save.
However, it would be best to seek professional advice from your accountant to ensure the accuracy of your accounts. If you're not affiliated with one, you can utilize our accountant to look for one in your area.
To guide you further on organizing your transactions, follow the detailed steps in this article: Categorize transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
