We have bought a used grain truck privately and, thanks to our wonderful Manitoba government, we had to pay the PST on it when we registered the truck. The PST now becomes part of the cost of the truck. My question is, how do I input this transaction as it is 2 cheques, one for the truck and one for the PST?
Thanks
Good morning Ross!
This is a pretty common occurrence for sure!
The way I usually set this sort of thing up is to start in the transaction screen. On the top, switch from "Withdrawal" to "Payable Charge". Setup the purchase of the truck, with the total being the two cheques added together. For example, I have a truck I purchased for $10,000, with GST of $500 and PST of $700. The payable charge I'm going to setup will be for $11,200.

Record this, then switch back to withdrawal. I can now apply the two separate payments to the outstanding charge, instead of trying to figure out how to allocate the two payments separately.

Let me know if you have any further questions. Have a great day!
