    Question regarding company/director expenses

    Thanks bbbbb Sorry for the flood of questions, last one I promise... When submitting an expense for something that was bought on eBay, for example a laptop. Would I put the supplier as "eBay", or, for example the eBay user e.g. "laptopshopuk" when submitting that expense? Many thanks, James
