How to handle accrued bond interest as expense

VicM

Recently purchased a bond which included accrued interest I had to pay to previous owner.  When I enter the number of bonds and purchase amount the total does not add up to the expense incurred since the bond included an accrued interest that was an expense to me.  How do I enter the accrued interest expense?

I'm using Quicken 2015 Premier edition.

Thanks,

Vic

Did you use the "Bonds Bought" transaction?  Because there's an "Accrued Int" field thereon:
