What does billable expense income mean? Sounds contradicting and im not sure what should go in this category

Hello, Luxaristic.

The term Billable Expense Income sounds contradictory at first, but it’s an essential concept in accounting, especially within QuickBooks Online (QBO). I'm here to share a quick breakdown to clarify what it means and what kind of transactions should go into this category.

Billable expense income refers to the income generated when you invoice the client for these billable expenses. When you mark an expense as billable, QuickBooks records it as a cost to your company. Once you invoice the client, the income is recognized, and the corresponding accounts receivable entry is generated.
