I appreciate you taking the time to express your concerns, @accounts-resgrow. Let me provide some insight about managing rented equipment in terms of expenses.

 

To begin with, you can create a Chart of Accounts (COA) and use Expenses as the Account Type when creating the account. However, I suggest reaching out to your accountant to confirm the appropriate Detail Type to select when creating an account.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Gear Icon or Settings and select Chart of Accounts.
  2. Click the New option and enter the account name and number.
  3. Select Expenses in the Account type and consult your accountant on what Detail type you should choose.
  4. Enter a description and verify the account.
  5. Once done, click Save.

 

Regarding the amount that varies with the days, I suggest manually rating the amount for the days whenever creating an expense for it.

 

For future reference, you can check this article to learn how to create subaccounts in your chart of accounts: Create subaccounts in your Chart of Accounts.
