How do I apply electric and internet portions to a rental payment? (edited)

I prepare a monthly invoice for a rental property that includes rent, electric and internet. When the invoice is paid as a lump sum and I apply the payment to the invoice, how can I be sure that the non-rent income is applied to electric and internet to zero out the electric and internet I've paid seperately?

    When I run a report the $1,650 needs to show up as Rental Income. How do I make that happen?

    Hello @CCJ,

    Thanks for reaching out! A good way to have the $1650 show up as rental income in your reports is to split the transaction you showed above that includes all invoiced items. Splitting a transaction allows you to assign multiple Categories and/or Tags to a single transaction, which would then show up in your reports this way.

    Our support article goes into more detail on how this works and contains steps on how to do this here: https://support.simplifi.quicken.com/en/articles/3348103-managing-transactions-in-quicken-simplifi#h_51a8de7322

    I hope this helps!

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
