I have an auto restoration shop, and purchase tools for use from a local vendor. I want to keep track of these tools for loss and depreciation purposes. How do I enter them when entering a bill from the vendor?
Solved! Go to Solution.
If your tools are going to be depreciated, then you list them as fixed assets in the chart of accounts, this is normal for high dollar shop equipment. But a $100 skill saw I would book as an expense.

You might want to choose the Detail Type closest to your transaction, Liz.
Each selected Detail Type has a description on the box below the field. You can refer to this information to choose the best one.
Currently, there isn’t a way to add another category aside from the ones showing on the list. If you’re not comfortable with your own discretion, I’d recommend asking an accountant’s suggestion.
