What is an Expense category?

Expense categories in PSOhub are used for reporting purposes; they allow you to filter or sort by one or multiple categories. When you filter on the Category column you can select the required categories:

To access the expense categories, click the Gear icon in the main menu bar and under My Organization, navigate to Expense categories:

Out of the box PSOhub provides you with four standard expense categories (Travel, Lodging, Meals and Other) but you can modify or delete them as well as add new ones.

How to modify or delete an expense category?

To modify an expense category, select the category. In the Edit category dialog box, you can overwrite the order number or category.

To delete an expense category, select the category and click the Delete button.

Note: You can only delete an Expense category if it hasn't been related to an expense entry.

Once you are done, click Save.

How to add an expense category?

To add a new expense category, click Create category.

Enter the order number and give a description for the new category.

Once you are done, click Save.

Next Step
If you are in the process of setting up your organization in PSOhub, your next step will be to set up your Tax categories in PSOhub (but only if you need additional tax rates).

Important: If you are integrating PSOhub with your back-end financial solution you will not complete this step.
