Question

How do I delete a vehicle? I don't have one.

It looks like Quickbooks Self-Employed has a default vehicle listed under me. I have none. It's not an issue using this software, but when importing to TurboTax, it tries to add a form about my non-existing vehicle. How do I delete this? I can't seem to find a way to delete the default vehicle in Quickbooks UI.

Hi there, @Beckie.

 

In QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE), you can make your vehicle inactive so it won't appear in your list of vehicles inside your company file. I'll write down the steps below to get you going. To begin, here's how:

 

  1. Access your QuickBooks Self-Employed company.
  2. Go to Apps, then select Mileage.
  3. Click the ▼ dropdown next to Add trip. Then, select Manage vehicles.
  4. Select the vehicle you want to make inactive.
  5. Click Vehicle no longer in use. This moves your vehicle to the Inactive section of your Manage vehicles pane.

 

See this handy article for further guidelines: Set up vehicles and mileage tracking in the QuickBooks Online mobile app.

I don't see any button to make the vehicle inactive in the Manage Vehicles section. Maybe the button doesn't show up if you have only one vehicle. It says the vehicle is my primary vehicle, maybe that's why? The only options I got are to mark it owned vs leased.

    Is there any answer to this question? I have the same issue. There is no way to make it "inactive."

    Hi there, gdeleon101.

     

    Allow me to share additional information about making your vehicle inactive in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE). 

     

    The option to select the Vehicle no longer in use will only show if it's a non-primary vehicle. 

     

    Please see the screenshots for your reference.
