Thank you, Rick. That gives understanding as to how it all should work.
So just because a partner has used their own personal money to purchase what would have been an expense for the business, does not mean that automatically qualifies as an unreimbursed partnership expense on their individual tax return. It has to meet the requirement of what one is expected to pay, not necessarily what one chooses on his own to pay for, even if it is for the good of the business.
The examples you gave helped, like work clothes, education, etc,. I appreciate your time.
