Recording GST for Expenses

Hi, I am needing assistance on how to record an expense with GST and PST. I am not registered to remit PST so that portion must go to the expense account and the GST is calculated on the subtotal (before PST). How do I enter this expense into the system. Currently, I am entering 2 expense lines for each expense:

-one being the subtotal (with GST added to this amount)

-the other being the PST (with the tax amount being exempt)

 

This is the only work around I have found regarding the GST being correct and the PST getting allocated to the expense account. Please advise if any other way to enter because now in my expense accounts I will have 2 lines for every expense (subtotal and PST).
