Hello there, @4963!

 

There are two scenarios you can consider before you can record the reimbursement of the professional fee you've paid. I'm here to share them and help you from there.

 

First off, if you connected our bank and your transaction has been downloaded, you can split the professional fee before adding it. This way, you can categorize it as an expense (professional fee) and personal (reimbursement). Here's how:

  1. Go to Transactions.
  2. Find your downloaded transaction (professional fee payment).
  3. Under TYPE, click the category of your transaction.
  4. Select Split.
  5. On the TYPE column, select Business for the first row and Personal on the second.
  6. Enter the amount of your transaction (£35 on the first row and £40 on the second).
  7. Click Add.

In addition, here's an article you can read to learn more about how you can split your transactions: Split and Exclude Transactions.

 

Meanwhile, if you manually recorded your transaction, you can add only the remaining amount of the professional fee you've made. To do so:

  1. Go to Transactions.
  2. Select Add transactions.
  3. Enter the remaining amount of the professional fee you've made (£35).
  4. Under Category, select Professional Fees.
  5. Click Save.

Additionally, here's an article you can read to learn more about how you can manually add a transaction: Manually Add Transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
