The vehicle loan payment will not show on the Profit and Loss report since this is linked to a liability account. The report only shows entries that affect your net profit such as those linked to income and expense accounts. For instance, the interest and fees that are included when paying the loan.
The Balance Sheet report, on the other hand, displays this information. You can run this instead to see your vehicle loan payment. Here's how:
Select the Reports menu.
Next, enter Balance Sheet in the Find report by name field.
Set the correct report period based on when the payment is recorded.
You can also add additional customization by clicking the Customize button.
Additionally, you can also record the depreciation of your vehicle asset using a journal entry in QuickBooks Online (QBO): Depreciate assets in QuickBooks Online.
