Accounting classes help your club categorize transactions for cleaner reporting and easier reconciliation. Most clubs use accounting classes to align Sprocket reporting with the same categories used in their bookkeeping software, often by team, program type, season, or revenue bucket.
Accounting classes are most useful when they mirror the categories your finance team uses outside of Sprocket.
