Viewing mileage as an expense
« on: November 04, 2011, 01:45:36 pm »
I am just getting used to this software. I am entering some information for my hours and am having no problems.
But, when I use the app to track mileage (for tax purposes only), I cannot find any way to delete the $0.00 that represents the amount of reimbursement for the expense (of which I am not being reimbursed for - taxes only).
Is there a way to eliminate the $0.00 so that the mileage doesn't appear as a strange expense of no amount?
Thanks,
- Steve

No, there is no way to remove the amount on an Expense item.  Whether it is a general expense or mileage.

Since you are not billing the Client for the mileage, what we would suggest is that you add yourself as a Client and put those mileage expenses under yourself.  In the Purpose (notes) field, just enter for what client you were tracking your mileage for.  Then at the end of the year, just run a report on the Expenditure code for your mileage.  That way the mileage expenses will be grouped under you instead of your clients.
