Expenses that are recorded against projects can be allocated a category. These categories may then be specified in filters for reports or when processing expense claims. Thus, you may use categories to distinguish those expenses that are not to be reimbursed because, for example, they are paid by company credit card or out of a supplied cash float.

If you use expense categories, you should create them before the expense types. There are no restrictions on their use.
