Thanks for the quick and clear response.
I’ve just done that. Created a supplier, then a purchase for June2020 to myself as the supplier called “Director Expenses” with a new nominal code “Travel and subsistance Expenses”.
I’ve put in two line items in that purchase …one for “Mileage” (at 0% VAT) and another line item for the food and hotels (which includes 20% VAT). Both of these with the same new nominal code “travel and subsistance expenses”. This total equals the more detailed breakdown on my exccel sheet.
i thought this may be a clear way to ensure the VAT was calculated right, the mileage is without VAT isnt it. This feels liks the right approach, am I on right path?
Cheers
James
