We had an event and ticket sales were $25. One of my customers made an event-related purchase for $16 and paid the balance of $9 via etransfer. I want to record the $16 as an event expense, but also truly reflect the total cost of the ticket on the customer's account. What is the best way to record this? I haven't made any entries yet.
