Hi all.
I have a literary agent who invoices on my behalf and either charges a commission of 12.5% + VAT or 10%+VAT and an additional 5% on behalf of a Lawyer that's VAT exempt as it's US. I'm VAT registered. What ends up in my account is a net figure of my fees + VAT, Minus one of the above deductions.
I'm trying to figure out how best to document this in Quickbooks. Any advice welcome.
Thanks

Hi there, hunter5,
You have two options to document the transactions in QuickBooks Online.
The first option is create an invoice with VAT for the amount paid by the agent. Then, enter a bill with a VAT for the commission taken by the agent. This is applicable if purchases are VAT reclaimable.
And, the second one is create only an invoice with VAT for the net income. Here's how:
After that, you can navigate the Receive payment function to enter the agent payment.
