How do I categorize the billers?

Checkfree Small Business Bill Pay automatically assigns a category to each biller based on standard industry codes. These categories help you organize and track your bill payments.

If a biller or an individual isn't associated with a standard industry code, Checkfree Small Business Bill Pay assigns it to the category Uncategorized. You can go to Manage My Bills and change the category for any biller to clearly identify the type of payment. For example, you may pay an individual for maintenance or repair services. You can find the person in your list of bills and change the category. Changing the category affects all payments for the biller.

You can add categories to organize your bills to meet your specific needs. For example, you may want to track your expenses separately for office equipment and supplies. In this case, you might want to add two new categories: Office Equipment and Office Supplies. Keep in mind that you cannot delete a category or change a category name. You can, however, assign any new or existing category to your biller.
