Hi I'm a VAT registered sole trader. I'm doing my own bookkeeping using online system. I've got a separate business bank account but has been using it to pay for my personal expenses (shopping, paying personal bills etc). What is the proper way of entering these transactions? Shall I enter them as drawings? Also I've just set up standing order for monthly transfer to my personal account, would that be drawings as well?
many thanks in advance

Hi, yes all personal expenses and cash taken for your personal use needs to be posted to drawings and dont forget you can not claim any VAT on these expenses even if you have paid it.
