Category Management

When you first begin using CBT, a basic list of categories will be created for you.  Categories can be either Expense or Income related and are sorted in the list appropriately.

You can add, edit or delete categories from the category management screen.  Editing existing categories will cause all existing transactions using that category name to have their category changed to match the new category name.  Deleting a category will NOT delete the category name from a transaction currently in that category.  What this means is that if you delete a category and still have transactions using it, the transactions will still show as using that category.  Certain category reports may not display transactions that use invalid categories.

You can also right click on a transaction within the category transaction list and jump to that transaction in the checkbook register.
