When uploading information in the Vehicle workpaper, you can:
Upload new cars to add new rows of car details to the Vehicle workpaper.
Upload changes to the details of cars listed in the workpaper (such as a new log book percentage, operating costs, etc.).
Vehicles can be rolled forward from year to year. Cars have opening kilometres but no closing kilometres and operating costs default to zero.
You can enter these changes manually once you receive the employees' declarations or you can aggregate these into an Excel spreadsheet and upload the final costs, days of availability and closing km, etc. in the same manner as you upload new cars.
Upload
Shared usage
for drivers of cars that are shared.
Upload
Operating cost transactions.
(Note that most people just add the value for fuel, insurance, repairs, and maintenance, etc. as a summary and don't break up the operating costs into a transactional record).
Upload
Non-business accessories
separately.
