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. -derek -- Derek Atkins, SB '93 MIT EE, SM '95 MIT Media Laboratory Member, MIT Student Information Processing Board (SIPB) URL: http://web.mit.edu/warlord/PP-ASEL-IA N1NWH warl...@mit.eduPGP key available ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.

There are already billable expenses in the system. I'm generating the invoice in which those billable items will be passed on to the client. I need to re-add the billable expenses to the invoice. There doesn't appear to be a way to do that... it looks like they are only added when the invoice is first created..

[GNC] re-adding billable expenses to an invoice
I accidentally flubbed some keyboard entry while putting together an invoice and messed up a billable expense item which had been automatically added when the invoice was created. Since there is no "Undo" the best option seemed to be to delete the entry and start over, but I can't find a way to instruct GnuCash to add billable items to an invoice. It seems to do it automatically at invoice creation, and no other way. Am I missing something? GnuCash 2.6.21. Thanks!
