Tracking
I highly recommend that Xero updates the system to prevent users from saving a tracking category without creating at least one tracking option underneath it first.
Currently, the system allows you to create a category completely empty. However, because it is empty, Xero automatically locks and grays out all filtering options in the Profit and Loss and Tracking Summary reports. This causes severe confusion, as there is no warning explaining why the reports are blocked.
Please modify the setup wizard so that adding a tracking option is a mandatory step. This will stop other users from facing this reporting issue in the future.
