Yes, clearly I did...

I honestly don't recall if there is a way to add additional billable
charge-back items to an already-created invoice. I wrote that original
code over 15 years ago; I'd have to search through it again to remind
myself how it works (and see what changes may have been made).
The way it is supposed to work is that when the invoice is opened for
the correct customer (or correct job), it will find all items and
chargebacks. Then you need to manually "add" those chargebacks to this
particular invoice by clicking on the "included" column.
I THOUGHT the query was created every time, but it's possible the query
only includes the chargeback items before it is posted the first time.
If you've posted and then unposted the invoice, it's certainly possible
the logic will not include new chargebacks.
Also, make sure the chargeback == invoice owner (customer and/or job).
If the chargeback is to a job but the invoice is a customer, it
definitely wont show up.
