Hi there, @Anonymous.
Welcome to the QuickBooks family. Let me share some clarification about categorizing actual inventory.
Currently, an option for inventory tracking is unavailable in the Self-Employed version. If you're referring to the categorization of transactions related to inventory, like supplies, I recommend choosing the closest one you can find.
The program is in line with the IRS Schedule C categories. If you're unsure of what to choose, you can visit this link for more information: Schedule C and expense categories in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
In case you need the steps, here's how:
- On the left navigation bar, click Transactions.
- Select Business, Personal, or Split.
- Choose the category.
For more information, as well as how to categorize using the mobile app, I recommend the following article: Categorize transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
Fill me in if you have additional questions about using QuickBooks Self-Employed. I'm always here to help. Take care always.
