Question
In the account registers there is an Exp field for each transaction, and in the Splits screen there is an Exp column. What are they for?Answer
If you enter an E into either the field or column by typing E or clicking the mouse in the field/column, then the transaction is marked as a reimbursable expense.
You can add any reimbursable expense amounts to any invoice by clicking on the Expenses button in the invoice and selecting the expense to add by ticking the Use column in the row that displays that expense.
Then on the invoice an income category can be assigned for that transaction line. Be sure to assign a sales-type tax code if appropriate.
