Steps
- Record the cost as usual - an expense, a petty cash payment, a staff claim or a supplier invoice - using the rental expense items (e.g. *Fuel and lubricants*, *Minor repairs*, *Third-party equipment hire*).
- On the line, choose the Vehicles & assets code: the asset (e.g. R-FA-RFE-000012) - or the agreement (L-LSE-000004) for a cost of that contract only.
- A cost coded to an asset counts against the agreement it was on hire under that day; one coded to an agreement is a direct lease cost.
Good to know
- Approval limits and duplicate checks of the existing workflows apply.
- A rental cost posted without a code shows in Exceptions and in Shared costs, where you can spread it.
