My client has an invoice for a subscription which I entered in full. He now wants it split so it will show in all his monthly P&Ls. I am using Quickbooks. Do I need to journal the split and if so how? Or is it just as easy/ok to do if I enter seperate monthly invoices with the same number/split figure?
