I'm here to help record the bill with a withholding tax you've received from a supplier, Tim.
You can start by creating a liability account to track the balance due from the supplier's bill and the tax amount deducted.
Here's how:
Create a bill to record the invoice you receive from the supplier. Then, make sure to add the liability account you've created above and enter a negative amount (-100).
After that, pay the bill (900.00). Then, create an Expense transaction to record the portion of the tax on the supplier's behalf to the tax authority. See the attached screenshot below for your visual guide.
Additionally, I've added an article that'll help you account for a withholding tax deduction on a customer invoice. This way, you'll be able to record the details accurately: How do I Record Tax Withheld by my Customer?.
Let me know if there's anything else you need about recording the tax withheld from the supplier's invoice. I'm always around to help you.
