I'm trying to tidy up my books and am getting to grips with the double entry system.

I'm a blocklayer and have recently started supplying materials and labour on some of the jobs I have been doing. Before I only supplied labour so it was straightforward.

Question is - if you raise an invoice for a sale which includes labour and materials do you include the whole invoice in the SDB or just the supply of materials. If its just materials where do you record the labour element.

The whole amount goes into the SDB regardless of whether it's labour or mats (net of VAT).
You might (for your own information) want to break it down further into Labour:Sales & Materials:Sales
