Hello @hello-edensecho-,
Let me help share information about how you can categorize your credit card transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
To start with, credit card expenses will show up in green and positive transactions since they're lances for your credit card payables. Don't worry, when you categorize them as you normally do, these transactions will show up as expenses in your Profit and Loss report.
With that being said, here's an article you can read to learn more about how you can review your transactions: Learn how to create and use rules to quickly categorize recent and past transactions.
Additionally, you can also browse for the content of this helpful article so you can easily handle duplicate transactions once you reviewed them: Learn what to do if you see duplicate transactions from your connected bank and credit card accounts.
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know in the comments. I'll be here to lend a hand. Stay safe!
My credit card is connected to my quickbooks, so all of the purchases I've made with it are already categorized...but when I pay my credit card, the payment shows up as another expense (in the exact amount of the sum of all my monthly purchases that month on the CC). Should I exclude expense, since it is the sum of the expenses I've already categorized?

Thanks for getting back to us, @hello-edensecho-.
I have information about your credit card transaction. Since credit card transactions are expense transactions, they'll show as expense when you pay them.
In your case, yes, you'll want to exclude them to avoid duplicate record. Here's how to do it:
Check out this guide for details: Exclude or delete transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
