You should set up business categories. Make sure to assign them to a schedule C line item number so they show up as business categories. I don't know what categories you would need but my husband is a Land Surveyor. Here's how I set mine up (I also put the Schedule C line number in as part of the name)...Survey IncomeSurvey Expenses ……..11 Labor ……..18 Office Expense ……..20 Equip Rent ……..22 Supplies ……..24a Travel ……..27 Other - Printing ……..27 Other - Small ToolsI made the expenses sub-categories of the main Survey Expense category.Also I use Tags for each job. Then when I run a report I can sort it by job. So an expense entry might look like this…Survey Expenses:22 Supplies/Maple Street
