Reimbursment of credit card annual fee shows up as a line item in Income Report

Bobbo

My son offered to reimburse me for my annual credit card fee. That payment, which I deposited into my checking account, shows up on the Income/Expense by Category report as income. How do I prevent that? I only want "real" income on that report.

Use the same category for the reimbursement that you used for the annual fee. Then they will offset each other

Thanks, I thought I did that, but maybe not. I will check. I am amazed at how fast you answered. Seemed like I just hit the "Post Comment" and then got the email telling me that the question had an answer!
