Currently, it can't.

That's why quite a few others have asked for Quicken Online to allow "split" transactions that can record multiple categories for a single transaction.

Right now, we split the items into two separate transactions at the store. Yes, its a pain but it seems the only way to do it.

    How do you split it up at the store?

    You run through the groceries and pay, then run through the prescription(s) and pay.

    Two payments so they are split here...

    The two seperate transactions is also the way we are handling this situation.

    Correct that they don't currently have the functionality to easily split transactions.

    Splitting them at checkout is a good method.

    Another would be to recategorize to cash, then split it in your cash which has the same net effect on your spending, but incorrectly represents how the money got there. I played with it and got it to work however in the end we just decided to put our electric and gas (single payment) into the utilities instead of tracking the cost of each seperately.
