Welcome to the Community, @robert17.  I'm here to help you add 100% VAT to the expenses of your imported goods. 

 

First off, you'll need to create an expense transaction. Here's how: 

 

  1. Click the Plus (+) icon, then choose Expense.
  2. Choose any of your Expense accounts on the first line. 
  • Enter a pound (1) in the Amount field. Then, choose 20% as the VAT code.

       3. Select the same expense account on the next line.

  • Enter minus a pound (-1) in the Amount field. Then, choose 0% as the VAT code.

The total of the expense will show as 0. Now, you're able to edit and enter the VAT in the box. Then, click Save and close

 

Please let me know if you have more questions. We're always delighted to be of your service.
