Customer payment which has deductions applied , hence you receive a less amount

When selling Sheep the Agent takes deductions, which some deductions have GST. It is my understanding I cannot create Expense within the Item List if they have GST as it affects the BAS.

What is the best way to handle this scenario:

Customer Invoice is $24000.00

Deduction -Agent Fee $1000.00 ( has GST)

Deduction Market Fees $1000.00 ( no GST)

Funds received into bank is $22000.00

    I would set up a clearing accounts putting the total payments into that and then making the payments for the deductions from that as well then transferring the balance into the main check account
