I'd be glad to help and share steps on how to record expenses in QBO, Meghan15.

 

Please know that you can only use one payment method per transaction at the moment. You'll want to create two separate expenses. This would let you indicate the amount that's paid in cash from the one that's paid using your debit card. Here's how:

 

  1. Click the +New button and select Expense
  2. Put in all the details of the transaction.
  3. Enter the amount that's paid in case, then select the cash account in the drop-down list for Payment account.
  4. Click Save and close

 

Once done, create a different transaction for the amount that's paid using your debit card.

 

Additional guidance and references about vendor-related transactions are also shared here:

Hi Meghan15,

 

Hope you’re doing great. I wanted to see how everything is going about recording the expenses. Was it resolved? Do you need any additional help or clarification? If you do, just let me know. I’d be happy to help you at anytime.

 

Looking forward to your reply. Have a pleasant day ahead!

@Meghan15, record the expense as a bill and pay it twice. one payment from cash acc and one from debit
