Hello there, SeanScammed,

 

Deleting a vehicle in QuickBooks Self-Employed is currently unavailable. You don't have to worry about it since mileage is what matters. Make sure to select the vehicle you used when tracking the trip.

 

I'll pass along this feedback to our product engineers.
 

Don't hesitate to post in the Community if you have any concerns.

"You don't have to worry about it"??

Wrong ... it is a real pain because qbse keeps putting my old vehicle in as default ... so I have to manually edit the vehicle on every single entry :-(
Why can't we just simply delete a vehicle that we no longer own?
please "pass along this feedback to our product engineers."

Please also mention that the qbse android app doenst play so nicely any more since android upgraded to [9] pie.

Is there any update here? In February, we were told that the product engineers are fully aware and currently collaborating to create features that will help users. That says nothing about this specific feature. 

 

The workaround solution you listed to deactivate the vehicle doesn't work for anyone who is no longer needing to track mileage at all. I don't have the vehicle in question anymore and don't need to add a new one. Miles aren't part of my business, but I'm forced to continue to deal with the old vehicle.

 

This is even more of an issue for anyone who uses TurboTax as the vehicle is pulled into your return each year and you have to jump through numerous unnecessary hoops just to remove that piece.

 

Please at least give us some hope besides the team evaluating features. This is beyond ridiculous after almost 4 years.


Hello Matt Owens, thanks for posting on this thread, So you can't delete the vehicle in the miles tab. However, you can make them inactive by going to  mileage tab> click the arrow button near add trip> click manage vehicles> click the vehicle you want to make inactive> click vehicle no longer in use. Please note that we can't make inactive if the vehicle is showing primary.

agree and echo what everyone else said. it is absolutely ridiculous that this feature is still not implemented. I import my QBSE info to turbotax each year, and it's a real pain to carry over a vehicle into my annual taxes that NO LONGER EXISTS.
