Categories are used to categorize transactions, for example, Food, Shopping, Salary, Bonus… There are three types of categories: Expense Category (For example, Food, Shopping), Income category (For example, Salary, Bonus), and Debt category (For example, Borrow, Lend). When you create a new transaction, the first step is selecting the transaction category. The figure below is the default set of categories. To add a new category, click the + icon in the upper right corner of the screen.

After filling in all the fields, you click Save to create the category, so you have successfully created the list.
