Hi everyone! I am planning a short vacation in the upcoming months and for that, I wanted to add a category group and a few categories (travel, food, accommodation, etc). But then I started thinking about what to do with these categories once the trip is over and I don’t need them anymore.

Since I haven’t done this myself yet, I was wondering how people deal with these types of temporary categories? Rename? Or put it all in a more generic “travel” or “next big expense” category?

I’d rather not simply hide them forever, as this could feel a bit messy over time :)

    Yeah I mentioned this more or less in another comment but this is currently my preferred approach as well 👍

      Nice! Yeah I’ve been doing this for about a year, and I’ve been really happy with it. Minimal overhead, but I don’t lose any information (and I don’t have a mess of hidden categories at the end).
