Re-Invoice Policy in Odoo 12

It often happens that while working on a project with a client, your employees have to spend their personal money on the project or the company has to spend some of the client’s expenses. Therefore, the company has to re-invoice this expense to the client. Take the example of an employee or company, who pays for hotels, travel, etc to work for a client. This expense, however, is not invoiced to the client. But must be added along in the customer’s next invoice. If the cost is incurred by the employee’s own money, it should be refunded by the company at its expense. In odoo, we can re-invoice based on the cost of the expense or if you want any additional charges for your expense you can re-invoice based on the sales price.
