How to add a record

Required permission

Data › Payment Type › Create

1. Open Data › Other Expense Type.

2. In the empty row at the bottom of the list, fill in:

   Field	What to enter
   Code	A short code.
   Name	The expense type (required).
   Detail Type	Optional sub-types.
   Excluded in Income Statement	Tick to leave this type out of the Income Statement.

3. Click ✔ at the end of the row to save it.

To change a record, edit it in the list and click ✔ (requires Data › Payment Type › Update). To delete one, click 🗑 (requires Data › Payment Type › Delete). You can't delete a record that's already in use.

To add many records at once, use Import in the toolbar (requires Data › Payment Type › Import Excel).

Example. Add Rent, Electricity (with Detail Type Store and Warehouse) and Owner's Drawings with Excluded in Income Statement ticked. Rent and electricity entered in Other Expense appear under Other Expenses in the Income Statement; the owner's drawings don't, because they aren't a business expense.
