I buy a preloaded smart card for public parking in Philly. Initially I assign it to Travel. As I actually use it, I Split the original transaction and assigne the individual charges to the proper category, like Medical Parking, Volunteer parking, etc and subtract them from the Travel dumping category. The only problem I have is when I haven't used an entire card before the year changes. For instance, medical parking charges that I enter now in 2011, show up in reports under the original 2010 date when I purchased the card because the splits can't have a date, except in the memo field. Can anyone think of a creative way around this? It's only important for tax purposes when I write off tax deductible parking amounts, so we aren't talking about large amounts, but I'd still like to keep it accurate.
