No, you don't have to list each individual receipt. You can add up the receipts in each category (supplies, office expenses, meals, etc.). Review What self-employed expenses can I deduct? to determine what business expenses you can deduct.

Also, take a look at the TurboTax article Reporting Self-Employment Business Income and Deductions for more information on business deductions.

Is it mean i need to write individually whats on receipt ? Example ' pressure wash on asset ' bleach on supplies ' ?

What if the stuff i use to do the business ' example ' i use christmas lights on install christmas light ' what they consider ? Supplies ? Because each receipt i have usually ' specific business ' example 1 year home depot all receipt for pressure wash ' 1 year receipt for christmas light business ?

Thank you again

Yes, you can write what you purchased on each receipt and keep the receipts for supporting documentation.

You can group related expenses together and include them as one line item. In your example, you can treat all of the receipts as "Supplies" - add them all together and put the total on the supplies line. If you purchased equipment, you'd seperate out the expenses that were for equipment or tools purchases and put those on separate line.

If all of the lines of business are separate, you would report the expenses separately. If the businesses are similar and/or operated within the same LLC you would report all of your income and expenses on one Schedule C.

You don't need to itemize out the expenses based on where you purchased the items.

Instead of including separate lines for Home Depot and Lowes, for example, you can add up all of your Home Depot and Lowes receipts together and put it on one line for "Supplies".
