FAQ

Common questions

What are reimbursable project expenses?

They are costs you incur on a client's behalf — such as travel, materials or subcontractors — that you can recharge to the client.

How do I recharge a cost to a client?

Record the cost against the project, mark it as rechargeable, and add it to the client's invoice.

Can I attach receipts to project expenses?

Yes. Supporting documents can be stored against the expense for a clean record.

Do project expenses affect profitability?

Yes. Costs and their recharges are reflected in the project's real-time profitability.

Recover what's yours

Every rechargeable cost, billed.

Absorbed expenses are lost profit. SwiftBooks Pro ties costs to projects and passes the rechargeable ones onto the invoice.
