Hello,

I’m getting used to Emma as a new customer but believe the handling of custom categories could be more intuitive.

I had a little struggle trying to delete a custom category created by error. The Analytics - \> Budget form allows you to add a custom category but not edit or delete. I had to use Google to find the More - \> Emma Pro - \> Add Category form. The menu sub-header is also misleading: possibly ‘manage categories’ would be more accurate than ‘add category’?

Additionally, there is a mistake in the instructions I did find: [Custom categories](https://help.emma-app.com/en/article/create-edit-and-delete-custom-categories-1q2iolc/)  
The edit category section mentions removing the category which could be a copy/paste error.

Thanks!

This makes sense! I’ll pass it onto the rest of the team and see what they think 😀
