Any idea what this accountant acronym might stand for on a VAT return "Fuel per SDB"

Any idea what this accountant acronym might stand for on a VAT return "Fuel per SDB" I know we could ask him, but we didn't want him to know we wanted to start doing our own VAT. We are thinking it might be to do with personal fuel usage ?? but might be wrong. If I do a Google search, I get a lot about small bombs. lol.

    Did you google SDB in accounting? Or just SDB?
    Signature removed for peace of mind

    Oh, why not just ask? Does it matter what he thinks? It's nobody else's business if you want to start sorting your own finances and save yourselves money. 

    Is it wrong that I'm more intrigued by the message from MSE advising that your signature has been removed?

    Usually means sales day book, what business are you in as might be referring to the actual receipts.

    It is not an acronym, it is an abbreviation
    If you are querying your Council Tax band would you please state whether you are in England, Scotland or Wales

    I am just setting up a spreadsheet for a friends business & his accountant wasn't around for a few weeks & i thought bit might be somthing simple. The reason my signature was removed is it was a personal website & i then changed it to one for work & you are not allowed to advertise. 
    PS: sorry for a late reply, but i dont get notices from the forum.

    Many thanks for a direct & sensible reply for me to look at. Its for a minibus business that employs self employed drivers & wasn't sure if it may have been something to do with personal petrol allowance ??
