Expenses - Option to include employee's expenses on customer's invoices
Most businesses have their employees incur expenses, such as mileage, which are chargeable to their clients. This means that the expenses need to both be added to invoices to clients and paid back to employees. This should really be done by simply getting employees to submit their expenses using, for example Hubdoc. However, at the moment, the systems available allow to to only one of the 2 things described above thus creating a lot of unnecessary admin work and potential inconsistencies between what has been charged to clients and what has been paid to employees.
In large companies there is one single system that allows employees to submit their expenses and specify the project they are to be recharged to (asuming they are billabel ones). It shouldn't be too hard to make it happen here by simply adding a field on hubdoc specifying the client the expenses need to be charged to (and also the possibility of breaking the expenses down to multiple clients). THis info would be picked up by Xero when invoicing.
