Hello there, atcautos.
To record the fuel receipt you paid in cash, we need to use the expense in QuickBooks Online. I'm here to show you how.
Recording an expense:
- Select the Transactions tab.
- Click on the New Transaction drop-down and select the Expense section.
- Enter the details of the transaction.
- Payee: Enter the name of the vendor or gas station.
- Payment Account: Select Cash as the payment method.
- Date: Record the date of the transaction.
- Amount: Enter the amount you paid for the fuel.
- Category: Choose an appropriate category such as Fuel or Automobile Expenses.
- Use the option to attach an image or file of the receipt for documentation and tax purposes.
- Click Save and close to finalize the entry.

Additionally, if you need to make any changes after recording your expense, you can edit an expense entry.
Moreover, consider tracking the cash flow of your transactions in QuickBooks Online for better financial management.
By following these steps, you can maintain accurate financial records and have a clearer insight into your transactions. If you have any further questions or require additional assistance, feel free to reach out. We are always here to help.
