Good morning,

The company I just began working with puts their uniform purchases under "Office/General Administrative Expenses".  Would those expenses be better off in their own account?

Thank you!

Thanks for reaching out to the Community, Michelle0531.

 

To properly identify if certain expenses should be in a particular account, I'd recommend working with an accounting professional.

 

If you're in need of one, there's an awesome tool on our website called Find a ProAdvisor. All ProAdvisors listed there are QuickBooks-certified and able to provide helpful insights for driving your business's success.

 

Here's how it works:

  1. Go to our Find a ProAdvisor page.
  2. Use the City or ZIP search field to specify a location.
  3. Select Find a ProAdvisor.
  4. Browse through your results and find one that works best for the business. You can click on each ProAdvisor's profile to learn more information about them.

 

Once you've found an accountant, they can be contacted through their Send a message form:

  1. Use the available text box to introduce yourself. Be sure to include details about which services you're looking for.
  2. Enter your appropriate info in the Your nameYour email, and Your phone number (optional) fields.
  3. Hit Send message.

 

I've also included a detailed resource about working with expenses which may come in handy moving forward: Enter & manage expenses

 

I'll be here to help if there's any additional questions. Have a lovely day!
