User Defined Grouping Categories

You use this form to define the grouping categories you want to see on your accounting reports. A definition consists of a non-duplicated number, and a title that you want to see on reports.

bulletYou should leave the "0 - None" definition, as that is a universal default.
bulletYour numbers don't have to be contiguous, so you probably should skip numbers in order to be able to insert new categories. Groupings will be in the numeric sequence.
bulletBoth Income and Expense accounts can use the same categories, or you may want to make them exclusive. It makes no difference within the program.
bulletAfter you have defined your categories, you then go to your Income and Expense accounts, and assign a User category to each account. Again, the default is 0 (None), and any accounts that aren't categorized will be lumped together in that grouping.
