How would you categorize reimbursable items in Quicken?

Asked by andrew (16543points) February 9th, 2008

Say I buy something that my parents will reimburse me for, like, say a gift or shipping… how do I categorize the expense of that item, as well as the matching reimbursement? In Quickbooks I’d just create a liability, but I’m not sure what to do in Quicken.
I want to make sure that if I purchase, say, some postage for my parents that I won’t lump that total into my “postage” total for the month or year (since it’s not really “my” expense).
