Payroll Question

[Christoph R]

Hi Melissa,

I am using the business features to achieve this. For smaller purchases I am creating collection bills for multiple purchases. Tracking payments for these bills can be a pain though. This gives me the added benefit to automatically charge back to customers.

Cheers,
Christoph

For example; Expenses: Supplies: Walmart: from checking account: 10.00. Can i have it automatically take 13% HST into another section to keep track of what I've spent in HST? I'm looking at the tax table for Sales but I don't know if it'll do anything for purchases. Manually I can enter a split transaction and the HST goes to taxes HST but with the amount of purchases I'm looking for a faster way.
