How do you mark billable expenses and bill them to a client on an invoice?

• A. Mark expenses as Billable but do not assign to any client.
• B. Enable Billable Expenses, tag expenses as Billable and assign to a client when creating the invoice, and itemize them.
• C. Do not use the Billable Expenses feature; bill the full amount without markup.
• D. Only mark the expenses as Billable after sending the invoice.

Answer: (B)

Billable expenses are costs you incur for a client that you intend to recover through the invoice. The correct workflow is to first enable the Billable Expenses feature, then mark each expense as billable and assign it to the specific client. When you create the invoice, pull in those billable expenses as separate line items and apply any desired markup so the client sees the cost breakdown plus your charge. This approach ensures proper attribution, clear itemization, and the ability to recover your costs. Marking an expense as billable without linking it to a client won’t let you bill anyone, skipping the billable step means you can’t automatically include it on the invoice, and marking billable after the invoice is sent won’t apply to that bill.
