Windows user, version R64.35. All my medical insurance premium account are under the "personal" group except one where it is under the "business" group. I want to change the group to "personal". I have been able to change the transactions to "personal" but not been able to change the group. Please advise

    In Q, "Business vs Personal" is determined by the tax line associated with the category, not the category name or anything else.

    I do not understand the answer from notacpa. Looking for guidance on how to change the one medical insurance group from "business" to "personal" so that all those categories are in the same group. I do not see how I can access the tax lines.

    To expand on NotACPA's answer you need to change the schedule in the tax line item from the [Category List] as illustrated below.

    To do so, select the problem category and click on the play button…

    From there you will select Tax Reporting and choose the appropriate personal tax line item…
