How do I create a receipt for customers who I sell on behalf of and keep a commission?

Hi Guys,

I often sell on behalf of people and keep a small commision. How do I create a receipt that shows that I have only keept a small amount of the profit as commision and given the remained to my client. E.g I sell a second hand top for $30 profit on Ebay. I keep $5 and give my client $25. I have an ABN number just not sure how to document these transactions as an agent/ consignment sales for tax purposes.

Thanks a lot,

Jane

I would print out the order details (invoice) which you can from the drop down menu on each sale.

Then write any relevant info to show as a receipt for the customer.
