How to enter a purchase invoice when there is vat and on other item no vat

Let me help you enter the purchase invoice in QuickBooks Online (QBO), Hello.

 

From the Tax Centre page, you'll notice a Tax/GST column on your purchase forms. When generating an invoice, select the correct VAT for the invoice.

 

Let's create a Custom tax that is assigned for the items without a VAT. Here's how:

 

  1. Select Taxes from the menu.
  2. Click Add tax, then choose Custom tax.
  3. Create a name for your custom tax rate, and give us a few details about how you track it.
  4. Put a checkmark in the box of This tax is collected on purchases.
  5. Under the Purchase rate, leave the number 0 in the percent section.
  6. Click Save when done.

 

Once done, here are the following steps to Enter a purchase invoice with VAT and the other item doesn't have:

 

  1. Log in to your QBO account.
  2. Click + New, then select Bill.
  3. Fill in the details and add a different item from the Category field.
  4. For the first line item click the dropdown arrow, choose the preferred name you created for the option of the item With VAT under the TAX field
  5. Select the dropdown arrow of the item under the TAX field, then select the customise No VAT you've created.
  6. Click Save when done.

 

Additionally, I've added an article if you want to adjust your sales tax due if you use the sales tax feature: Create or delete a sales tax adjustment in QuickBooks Online.
