Create a classification and assign it to a
transaction
You can use
classifications and subclassifications to organize your finances in
more detail. In Money, you can designate two types of
classifications. For example, if you set up a classification for
your properties, within that classification you can assign
transactions to Property 1, Property 2, and so on. You can then set
up a second classification for your family members in order to
assign transactions to yourself, your spouse, and your child.
