Can I rent my vehicle to my corporation?

You certainly can, @jennfr. I'll help you record your rented vehicles so you can start managing them in your account.

First, you'll need to set yourself up as a vendor in QuickBooks Online. We'll use this profile to track the payments made to that certain expense. You can also add special characters to the vendor's display name to make it easier to identify.

Here's how:

1. On the left pane, go to the Expenses tab.
2. Select Vendors.
3. Click New vendor from the upper right corner.
4. Set up the Vendor Information.
5. Press Save.

Once done, we can now create an expense transaction. To proceed, follow the steps below:

1. Go to the +New icon.
2. Under Vendors, select Expenses.
3. Click the New transaction dropdown, then tap Expense.
4. Enter the necessary information and ensure to choose the Rental Expense category.
5. Press Save.

You can always set up a different account from your COA to manage your rental expenses. Just click on this link to view the entire procedure: Add an account to your chart of accounts in QuickBooks Online.

If your firm considers the rental vehicle to be regular and required, you can write it off as an expense. However, if you're referring to this as a lease vehicle, visit this article instead: How do I properly record lease payments?

Furthermore, I would advise speaking with your accountant to determine the best course of action for your company. Thus, we can maintain the accuracy of your books. If you have none, you can also seek help from our accountant through this site: Find an accountant or bookkeeper.

I'm always ready to lend a helping hand if you need more assistance with recording your expenses in QuickBooks. You can always get back to me whenever you have other concerns. Have a great day.

Ok, I'll do that but how do I pay my self from the corporation.?

You can pay yourself by creating a check, @jennfr00. I'll show you how. 

1. Go to the + New menu in your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account, and select Check.
2. Choose the bank account where the money will be withdrawn.
3. Fill in the check fields.
4. In the Account field, be sure to select Owner's equity. 
5. Select Save and Close.

Yeah, I did think about that. so maybe I will have to start tracking milage and do milage reimbursement instead of leasing vehicle to the business.
