Set up grouping schedules

Use grouping schedules to group similar accounts together for tax exports, reports, and financial statements, and to calculate net income in the trial balance. You can add or modify an unlimited number of grouping schedules for your project.
  1. Open your project
  2. Select the
    Groupings
    tab.
  3. Choose a grouping schedule from the dropdown or create a new one. We recommend you use the default —
    Account Classification
    — which you can modify.
