hello -- i need to create IN/OUT vat for a NL based client with EU suppliers. currently, I can only set a VAT tax rate which inflates my accounts payable (100) while creating a VAT liability (21) and an Expense (79). The 21 should be offset against a VAT receivable as per EU Tax Treatise. How do I make affect this in QBO?

When you enter a tax adjustment, QuickBooks automatically adds a general journal entry to show the adjustment. And, it is shown in the related section of the Tax Detail report.
I've added this link for more details: Make tax adjustments in QuickBooks.
