Hello,

 

When entering expenses or bills, if you mark it "Billable" it means when you create the invoice for your customer it will give you a pop-up to be able to bring that expense you incurred onto the invoice and then charge your customer for it.

 

Here is the article and video that talks more about it.

Ha I see! So if I have already an Invoice under my customer charging for the paint I bought for them, then I don't need to mark this as billable since is already in the invoice. Correct?

 

Thank you for your help.

Kindly,

@useradriana-gubllc That is correct.  If you have already recouped the expense by adding an item on the invoice manually or just increasing the amount you charged your customer, then no need to mark the expense as billable.

 

Its really up to you and what aligns with how you bill your customers already.  You can just add your expense cost into your fee, or you show line by line the expenses you incurred and what you're charging your customer for.
