Linking Invoice Line Items to a Project

When this setting is switched on, a new dropdown appears on each invoice line-item called “Link project”. Line items that are added by using the Add Time, Add Expense or Add Fixed Amount buttons are automatically linked, and for all other items you can choose which project (for the same customer) you want to link them to. You have the option of selecting active projects or even archived projects that have uninvoiced time, expenses, or fixed amounts.

Although this change does not affect any existing invoices, you can easily edit them and manually link individual line items to relevant projects. This will allow you to accurately report on project billing.

You can click on invoice number to open the invoice details page for a particular invoice.

      Hi Bart,

      You cannot link an entire invoice to a project because many customers create invoices that have line items linked to multiple projects. Would it help if we were to remember your project selection from the first line item so you don’t have to select it every time?
