How do you get a billable expense to carry over to an invoice at the sales price in QBO

Setting a markup percentage on billable expenses will ensure the sales price is automatically reflected when added to the invoice in QuickBooks Online (QBO), Falcon.

When you add a billable expense to QuickBooks Online (QBO), please be aware that initially, only the actual cost of the expense will be displayed. To reflect the sales price, you'll need to configure a markup percentage in the settings, which will automatically adjust the listed cost to your desired sales price on the invoices.

Let me walk you through the steps on how to enable the markup feature in QBO:

1. Go to the Gear Icon.
2. Select Account and Settings.
3. Navigate to the Expenses tab.
4. In the Bills and Expenses section, click the pencil icon and checkmark the Markup a default rate of % box.
5. Click Save, then Done.

By enabling this feature, QBO will automatically calculate and add the markup to the billable expense, reflecting the correct sales price on your invoices.

Thanks for the reply but our markup is not a percentage across the board.  I think I would be better off just not using this feature.
