There will be times that you make a purchase that has a GST and GST free component in the one transaction.

As the GST on the total amount of the transaction won't be exactly 10%, you will need to enter a split transaction.

You have two options for this in QuickBooks Online.

We have used the example of a purchase from Officeworks where the Slab of water is GST free and the stationery has 10% GST on it.
