Hello Mcooney, thanks for posting on the Community page, we appreciate what you are saying and have left it back as feedback, we have passed this on as well to the team. It goes on demand so if there is lots of customers asking it about it may be a feature that comes out in the future.

Like this one?

Yes but the CATEGORY field is not an option for importing.

You need an importer tool to do so

I just found out... By preceeding the Product / Service name (in the import file) with the CATEGORY name followed by a colon, this successfully imports the category into Quickbooks Online!  Tried and tested today.
