Combined invoice for time and expenses

Combined invoice for time and expenses

I'm investigating paid invoice management systems like Zoho, and I see this comes up every 6 months or so here on the forums, looks like it's about time for another request. 

So far the biggest missing feature for my business is the inability to add billable expenses to an existing time invoice. I do IT support and often have a list of billable expenses that equals or exceeds my timesheet entries for a given project. 

Since I invoice on project completion but may have 2-6 weeks of time and materials to keep track of, it's better for me to enter expenses as I incur them rather than try to remember them all to attach to a standalone expense invoice. I also have a separate person responsible for invoicing, and she should be able to add all the associated expenses to the single project invoice after I enter them into the system.

I suggest a couple of ways to do this: 1. let us associate a billable expense with a project, and have the project invoice gather all unbilled expenses when it's created or 2. generate a list of all unbilled time and expenses and let us select which ones to add to an invoice.

As the billable expenses work now, I don't think we'll be able to use Zoho in the long-term.
