By default, SiFi provides a set of standard categories for both Expenses and Reimbursements (e.g., Airline, Hotel, Food & Beverages). These categories help you classify spending for accurate reporting and accounting.

However, every company can customize the list by adding their own categories in both English and Arabic.

Adding a New Category

1. Log in to your SiFi account.

2. Navigate to Configuration → Categories.

3. Select whether you want to manage Expenses or Reimbursements.

4. Click “+ Add Category”.

5. Enter:

   • Name (EN) → Category name in English

   • Name (AR) → Category name in Arabic

6. Click Save.

✅ The new category will now be available in the relevant sections of SiFi (e.g., Expense creation, Reimbursement request).

Editing or Removing Categories

• Edit → Update the English/Arabic labels if needed.

• Delete → Remove categories no longer in use (note: existing transactions will still show the old category).

Best Practices

• Keep categories clear and specific (e.g., “Travel – Domestic” vs. just “Travel”).

• Align categories with your Chart of Accounts for seamless accounting sync.

• Use both English & Arabic labels to ensure clarity for all employees.
