    Right click on the transaction in the report that you want to change and then click on Recategorize Transaction(s). You will get a popup where you can select the category you want to change it to.

    If you have multiple transactions you want to make the same category change in:

    • If the transactions are not in consecutive order you can select them all by clicking on one transaction and while holding down CTRL click on each of the other transactions.
    • If the transactions are in consecutive order you can click on the top transaction and while holding down SHIFT click on the last transaction.
    • These actions will shade all of the selected transactions.
    • Right click anywhere on the shaded transactions and then click on Recategorize Transactions(s) to get that popup where you can select the new category you want for them.
