A client cost.
Did you bill it?

Match client-related receipts to the agreement and invoice before asking for reimbursement. Recover a missed billable expense without inventing a charge.

Connect Gmail to get started. You approve each money action.

The short answer

Review the agreement and expense approval, match each receipt to the client and compare it with invoices already sent. Ask about missing or unclear items, then use your normal invoicing process for expenses the client agreed to cover.

Trace the receipt to a client and project.

Start with vendor receipts, project emails and existing expense records. Identify who incurred the cost, why it relates to the client and which project it supports. Check for a receipt already entered under another name.

Examples to review include an approved project purchase, a pass-through vendor charge or agreed travel. These are review prompts, not a claim that every expense in those categories is billable.

An expense needs a basis for reimbursement.

Read the contract, statement of work and any written approval. Check what costs the client agreed to cover, any limit and whether the cost was included in the original fee. Ask the business owner about ambiguous items before invoicing.

Keep the actual receipt with the approval and project reference. Do not add an unsupported markup or turn an internal operating expense into a client charge simply because it was overlooked.

Avoid billing the same cost twice.

Compare the expense with issued invoices, credits and reimbursement records. Search by vendor, date and project as well as amount. A cost may have been included in a bundled line or billed by another team member.

Once confirmed, prepare the item through the normal invoicing process with a clear description and the evidence the client requires. Route it for the same approval as other client charges.

While reconciling [project], we found [expense] dated [date] for [amount]. Our records show this was approved under [agreement/reference] and has not been included on an invoice. Could you confirm the billing contact and any required reference before we include it?

Finding an expense is not collecting it.

Record which invoice includes the approved cost and when it is due. Keep any client question with the supporting receipt and approval. If the client disagrees, resolve that question instead of repeatedly sending the same charge.

Check the eventual payment through your existing records. Huck can find billable expenses and pass-through costs missing from a client invoice, but it does not guarantee eligibility or collect the payment for you.

A few things
before you act.

Can every expense be passed to the client?

No. Check the agreement, prior approval and whether the cost was already included in the fee.

Should I invoice a cost if the approval is unclear?

Ask the person authorized to resolve the scope first. Keep the evidence with the decision.

Does Huck send new invoices automatically?
