Do not enter purchases on vAT number

Question

I have a question about purchases on vAT number.

I regularly order materials on a site where you can only order with a vAT number, so I have received a purchase invoice. Now I want to order something again, but I will be using this material for a good friend. So no sales invoice or anything like that.

Is this possible, and if so, how should I enter this purchase invoice?

+ If I want to enter part of that invoice and not the other part, how do I split this in dexxter?

Thanks in advance.

When entering the expense in Dexxter, you can adjust the professional use percentage.

If the entire invoice is for your acquaintance, set the professional use percentage to 0%. The VAT will then not be reclaimed and the cost will not be deducted from your profit.

If the invoice is mixed (partly business, partly private), calculate which part is business. For example, if the business part amounts to €80 out of a total of €100, enter a professional percentage of 80%.
