Spanish term or phrase: la afectación debe ser total
Hola,

Tengo otra consulta relacionada con el mismo párrafo, para ser más específico "afectación debe ser total"

En el caso de los vehículos automotores y los gastos aparejados (mantenimiento y seguros). Para poder ser considerados deducibles, los vehículos deben estar afectos a la actividad, pero además **la afectación debe ser total** y el vehículo no podrá utilizarse para fines privados.

My try:
"... for them to be considered deductible, vehicles must be allocated to the activity; in addition, they **must be fully allocated to the activity**, and they should not be used for other purposes. "
