SageForum for UK versions of Sage 50- Help and support.

Can someone let me know how to do a journal entry on Sage to reclaim vat on business mileage.

The business miles has already been entered using T9, but Ive now realised you can reclaim some of the vat element.

In our case the total mileage for the quarter was 3508 and the fuel element for the car is 14p per mile.

Thanks in advance

The easy way is to do a cash payment and receipt, one with VAT and one inclusive of VAT.

e.g.

Cash receipt - reversal of payments for mileage £117.50 T9 £0
Cash Payment - payment of mileage £100 T1 £17.50
