Not every category applies to every account. Pay-related categories (Income, Deductions, Taxes) only show up when you have a payroll connection. Insights about subscriptions need a few months of transaction history. If you don’t see a category, it usually means MyTruv doesn’t have the data for it yet (see How Insights Are Generated).Related
