I can help you with recording the charges you make on behalf of your clients in QuickBooks Online, @accounting-carma.
To record an expense that you incur for your customer, you can use the Billable Expenses feature of QuickBooks Online (QBO). This feature is available in QBO Plus and Advanced versions. You can easily add the expenses to your customer's invoice and get reimbursed.

Once you turn it on, you can create Bills, Expenses, or Checks to record the expenses you incur on your customer's behalf. Then, you can add these expenses to your customer's invoice to ask them for reimbursement.

I have a similar situation where I have billings for the same customer on a daily basis. I use the statement charges (desktop version) to input the sale daily, instead of creating 30 invoices. Can anyone know this can be done using QB online?
Hello there, @dkwan. Handling invoices and bills for your customers is a fundamental part of your business operations. I'm here to provide assistance and support as we explore the best practices and tools available to streamline your invoicing process and enhance your overall billing efficiency.
You can achieve a similar result to statement charges in the desktop version by using recurring transactions. To assist you better, I need to know which version of QuickBooks Online you use. Is it Simple Start, Essentials, Plus, or Advanced?
If you're using QuickBooks Online (QBO) Advanced, the batch invoicing feature enables you to create and send multiple invoices at the same time. For all other versions, you can create and send the same invoice to multiple customers.
On the other hand, if you have customers you invoice regularly, create a scheduled recurring invoice instead. Let's also ensure that the template you set is Scheduled type so QuickBooks will automatically create the transaction.
To create recurring transactions, follow the steps below:
You can also check out this article to further understand how to set up automatic payments for recurring invoices: Set up Autopay for recurring invoices in QuickBooks Online.
It's also easy to get a list of all recurring transactions by running the Recurring Template List report.
We would appreciate regular updates on your progress with sending batch invoices to QuickBooks Online. Your task completion is our primary focus.
