# New features in v4.1

## :: Automatic assignment of payee/category

This feature allows you to assign a payee and / or category from a word found in the Description field.

Note, however, HomeBank will affect if and only if the payee and the category are both empty.

There is a new dialog box called Assignments in which you create rules that will be used to automatically assign.
This automatic assignment comes at a time you import a file, or you can trigger it manually from the Accounts window.

## :: New payment mode

HomeBank 4.1 introduce some more payment mode:

- Debit card
- Standing order
- Electronic payment
- Deposit
- Financial institution fee

## :: Move for payee and category

This feature allows to replace a payee/category by another. This will allow you to simply rearrange the payees and the categories.

For example, you have a payee "My old payee" and you want to change it to a new payee called "My new payee":
When you use the move feature, HomeBank replace the old with the new value in all transactions, then delete the old value.
