Creating Invoice with Reimbursable items

I have a client that invoices his customers which includes his hourly rate plus incidentals that need to be reimbursed.  These include tolls and kms travelled.  How do I get the invoice correct with correct categories but also reports the GST correctly in the GST report?  MYOB support says that it is an issue and will work on it, however I cannot get the journal right:  See example:

this shows the income at the subtotal.  Expenses are underneath that need to show correctly in GST report.

Above shows a sample if I apply transaction lines in the invoice as COS - 5-xxxxx.  Any ideas when working in MYOB Bus Pro how I can fix this?

    Hi samiam,

     

    Thanks heaps for laying all that out. You've explained it really clearly, so cheers for that. With reimbursable items in MYOB Business Pro, the GST and category setup can get a bit fiddly, and because every business handles these a little differently, the best move here is to have a quick chat with your accountant. They'll be able to guide you on the right accounts and GST codes to use so everything lands spot-on in your GST reports and matches your bookkeeping setup. Your accountant will be the best person to make sure it's all treated correctly and keeps you out of any ATO dramas.
