AUTO Screen Needs 4562

Generally, enter vehicle expenses on an AUTO screen and point it to the form were the expenses are needed (select the destination form from the For box drop list). For each AUTO screen, create a 4562 screen pointed to the AUTO screen with the appropriate multi-form code. Enter a valid listed property code (V, E, T, H or N) on the 4562 screen. The IRS may require Form 4562 even when only mileage or actual expenses are claimed.

Common issues:

• Vehicle not printing on C page 2
• Vehicle not printing on 4562 page 2
• Reject F4835-004
• Error 0183 or reject SC-F1040-003
• Other errors or rejects on other forms related to missing auto information, similar to 0183, SC-F1040-003 and F4835-004

Most of these problems are fixed by entering a 4562 for each AUTO screen and marking the 4562 listed property code correctly. Always try that first.

Problems are more likely when there is more than one C, F, E or 4835 screen or combination of these screens, and you have not selected the option Print Form 4562 only when required at Setup > Options > Form & Schedule Options.
