I am preparing accounts via sage and would like a little guidance please on where to start by posting mileage expenses/allowances to the relevant accounts. ie DLA account and the VAT account.
You're better off setting up a supplier account for each person who gets expenses - post the expenses claims via that, as if posting normal invoices, setting the nominal code as appropriate for the type of expense, and the tax code according to whether there is VAT. This is miles easier than messing around with journals.
If it's a director, and rather than make a payment to him for the expenses, you just wish to clear it via the DLA, then set the DLA up as a bank account (which is generally a good idea anyway). You can then post the payment from the DLA account to the supplier account.
