Income categories How you group extra income.

In ERAFinance › Income categories
Who uses itOrganizer

The income categories of a championship. They are the same for all its events.

What it is for

Categories group the extra income of the events, so that the event balance shows, for example, how much came from sponsorship and how much from hospitality. Set them once for the championship.

Step by step

  1. Open the page. Go to Finance › Income categories and choose the championship.
  2. Add a category. In New category write the name, for example "Sponsorship", and click Add.
  3. Rename it. Change the name in the field on its line and click Rename. The lines already written take the new name.
  4. Hide it. Click Hide: the category is no longer offered for new lines but stays on the old ones. Use again brings it back.
  5. Delete it. The bin button appears only when the category has no lines. Click it and confirm.

What ERA checks

  • The name is required. A new category cannot have the name of an existing one of the championship: check the name also when you rename a category.
  • A category with lines cannot be deleted: hide it instead. The Lines column shows how many lines use it.

Common problems

What happens What to do
"There is already a category" with that name. Use the existing one, or click Use again if it is hidden.
There is no bin button. The category has lines: click Hide.
