Hi there, userlzelayt.

If you're not sure what category type to use, I'd recommend consulting your accountant to accuracy and avoid discrepancies in your books. Additionally, here are some articles that you can read to help keep your Chart of Accounts organized:
 

Don't hesitate to keep in touch if there's anything else I can do for you. I'll be glad to help you anytime.
