Problem splitting expense

** Update - I think I've worked it out **
I am having trouble splitting an expense with import VAT and fee.
I am fairly new to QB and the display on the Split screen has changed since I last managed similar transactions which my accountant set up.

The drop down to select the amounts as Inclusive of VAT is no longer on the page and the subtotal and VAT amount box are not displaying.  Instead there is a split amount and a difference.  This doesn't allow me to enter the fee and the VAT for the transaction to balance.  I can only enter VAT charges, and if the fee is included, this becomes the difference and it isn't possible to proceed.

Has the split function changed with a new update or am I doing something wrong?
