Hello, the information you provided is not really enough to try to help you. Can you please be much more precise about what you did? Which Emacs version are you using?

So beancount.el has not been completely executed because of this error. However, there is no mention of a "completion-category-default" symbol in the beancount.el code, only a "completion-category-defaults" (note the trailing s). Did you edit beancount.el (intentionally or unintentionally) or is this a mistake in reporting the exact error message? Emacs documentation does not say when "completion-category-defaults" has been introduced, so I suspect it has been there since a long time, thus I don't think this is caused by you using a too old Emacs version.
