Income where payer retains a fee

I receive a payment from an agency but they retain a percentage as a fee. eg, - company A owes me $110 and they retain $10 so they pay me $100. How do I account for the $10 as an expense?
Thanks
Thanks

Hi Grant,
Here is my suggestion.
a) In the 'Allocate' tab of the receipt you pay the full invoice amount of $110.00
b) In the 'New' tab of the receipt you select the applicable expense account that you wish to use to track the fee & specify the fee as a negative amount -$10.00 (negative income is treated as an expense in the P&L report)
c) The receipt total will equal $100.00

Cheers for that, appreciate your help.0

Only problem is, discount of 0 is greater than negative expense, so not a valid transaction. Any more thoughts? Screen shot attached...0

Hi Stuart,
When using the 'New' tab within the receipt, the grid section requires you to use either an item or an account for each row entry. If you use an item then the discount field is enabled. However if you use an account the discount field is not enabled.
So my suggestion would be to use an account not an item to avoid the discount validation.
