Use the Split Expense feature to add a single entry from the same receipt that has multiple categories. For example, when printing documents or fliers for advertising, and also purchasing pens and folders as office supplies.

- On the first row in the Split Expense grid, select the first category in the Category field. If desired, enter notes about that portion of the transaction in the Memo field.
- In the Amount field, type the transaction amount for that category.
- Repeat the previous two steps, adding new rows as necessary until you've split out the entire transaction amount.
- When finished, click
OK to save and close the form, then click
Save in the Expenses form to finish saving the transaction.
