Add non inventory item to item layout purchase

We received a quantity of stock from supplier that I have entered using the item layout.  However there is one item that is not an inventory item but is just an expense.  I couldn't find a method of entering in a non-inventory item with/without a quantity and just putting the total price.  I resorted in the end to adding it to the freight amount just to get the invoice to be the correct total due.  

I would be grateful for advice on how to do this correctly in future.

    Hi Polly_Templeton 

     

    What some users do is create a new Item, give it an item number such as 'Expense Misc' and set it to 'I Buy only' - select an expense account for the item. If you have several expense accounts you use, created several clearly labelled items. Use this item when needing to record such expenses. Same applies to sales invoices, however set to 'I sell' only.
