 =====Setting a CATS date for my User=====
+CATS allows a user to change the date for a session for a few reasons:\\
+  * User is adding data that happened a few days ago.\\
+  * User needs to delete a transaction from last month. They would need to change the date in CATS so that    the transactions from last month will be available.\\
+Go to: **User Preferences > User Settings**.\\
+[{{:cats:questions:settings:setcatsdate_accessmenu.png?|Access menu to set a date in CATS}}]
+Click on the **General** tab on top left. Enter the date in the box next to **CATS date**. Press **Save** to continue.
