How do i categorise the purchase of small hand tools and consumables for a workshop. I am an engineering Ltd company. These tools will stay with the company?

Thanks for becoming part of the Community, davis-gtengineer.

To properly identify what you should be categorizing specific purchases as, I'd recommend working with an accounting professional. If you're in need of one, there's an awesome tool on our website called Find a ProAdvisor. All ProAdvisors listed there are QuickBooks-certified and able to provide helpful insights for driving your business's success.

Here's how it works:

1. Go to our Find a ProAdvisor page.
2. Use the City or ZIP search field to specify a location.
3. Select Find a ProAdvisor.
4. Browse through your results and find one that works best for the business. You can click on each ProAdvisor's profile to learn more information about them.
   
   

Once you've found an accountant, they can be contacted through their Send a message form:
 

1. Use the available text box to introduce yourself. Be sure to include details about which services you're looking for.
   
   
    
2. Enter your appropriate info in the Your name, Your email, and Your phone number (optional) fields.
   
   
    
3. Hit Send message.
   
   

You'll also be able to find many detailed resources about using QuickBooks in our help article archives.

I'll be here to help if there's any additional questions. Have an awesome Tuesday!
