How do I add billable hours on the mobile app

You got me here to help you add billable hours in QuickBooks Online, tgirard22. 

 

The Billable feature is only available in QuickBooks Online Plus and Advanced version. Also, adding billable hours through the mobile app is not an option. However, you can add billable hours using a web browser as a workaround.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Click the (+)New button.
  2. Select Invoice.
  3. Select the customer.
  4. Under Add to Invoice, select the Billable expense, then click Add.
  5. Click Save and close

 

If you're referring to adding billable time, you can follow these steps:

 

  1. Click on Sales from the left navigation menu.
  2. Go to the Invoices tab.
  3. Choose the invoice you'd like to add the billable time on to.
  4. On the right-hand side, you'll see an arrow, click on this to expand the list of open timesheets, billable expenses, or estimates.
  5. Click Add on the timesheet you want to add to the invoice.
  6. Click Save and Close.

 

To learn more about billable expenses and time, check out these articles. It provides detailed instructions and guides on how:

 

 

If you have any other queries, please post again to this thread. Take care and have a good one!

How do I add billable hours on the mobile app

How do we escalate this? It's been YEARS that QBO has failed to do this, and as a business traveller, the whole point of a mobile app is expense and time entry (cuz none of the other data in the mobile app is ever actually correct). I know it's likely political and Intuit wants to drive business to other apps, but this should be crucial functionality for most mobile users that need to bill time and expenses to clients while on the move. Nobody wants to login to their PC and redo something they could have done on the go!

How do I add billable hours on the mobile app

Hello there, @78910

 

I know how beneficial it is to have the ability to create billable entries using the QuickBooks Online (QBO) mobile app. However, the option is only available if you access your account via a web browser. 

 

You can read this article for more information about the available features of the QBO mobile app: Compare mobile app features.

 

As a workaround, you can use your mobile device to log in to your QBO account via a web browser. Then, add the billable transactions there. 

 

While there's no exact time frame for when this feature will be implemented, I recommend sending feedback to our product developers. This way, they can further review this specific feature and consider adding it to future updates. Here's how:

 

  1. In your QBO account, navigate to the Gear icon.
  2. Next, select the Feedback option.
  3. From there, enter the details of your product comments, suggestions, and requests. 
  4. Then, click Next to submit. 

 

You can also visit our Customer Feedback for QuickBooks Online website to track the suggestion you've submitted. 

 

I'm always here ready to lend a hand if you have other QBO concerns. Please don't hesitate to post again here. Have a good one and stay safe.
