Hi, why are some of my vehicle expenses such as repairs coming through my tax form as disallowance? I understood that if the vehicle is purely a business vehicle that they are allowable...

Welcome to the Community, @propserv.

In QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE), if you are manually entering the expenses and setting them to car/vehicle expense (rather than using the mileage tracker), it will automatically come through the disallowance when you attach the category. Only travel expenses will be allowable.

Also, I highly suggest consulting your accountant for help claiming this expense to make it allowable.

To learn more about this process in QBSE, consider checking out these articles:

• Manually add transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
• Custom categories in QuickBooks Self-Employed.

Reach out to me in the comment below if you have any other questions or concerns. I'll be here to help. Have a good one!

I have the same problem - I need my car for business but I am not doing the mileage because of Covid restrictions. Nevertheless I still have to maintain my vehicle with for example, tax, MOT, service.  When I put the transactions into my QB account they are disallowed.
