If this project has been created from a sale closed deal through HubSpot, then you should find that your project starts with a single price value, with possibly one additional disbursements value.
You can leave these values the price value untouched, or
You can replace them with a more specific breakdown of production and disbursement costs, or
Adjust them if the scope of the project changes after the project has been handed over to you.
How you choose to handle this the price is entirely between you and your client’s requirements.
If there are any disbursements, you must provide an accurate breakdown of these costs. This assists our Accounts team to match-up your project expenses with their own records.
| Note |
|---|
Be careful when adding new production or disbursement costs to your projects. Always ensure that any additional costs will be understood by the client. The clients cannot currently see your price breakdown. However, if they are an Admin or Accounts user they can see the current total project price from the Client Hub. |

Do I have to include all disbursement costs?
Yes, you do.
We want to be able to match-up all of our own invoiced expenses to project deliveries. When accounting VisDom Accounts pays third-party invoices, they refer to these disbursement entries for confirmation. Without these entries, a question will be raised.
...
If additional project costs lead to a new invoice being generated, you will not be able to apply any more production credit without the assistance of the Accounts team.
Alternatively, using the Client Hub your clients can settle any of their invoices themselves with their remaining production credit balances.
| Info |
|---|
If credit is used to settle 100% of the Total project price, an invoice will not be sent. Should the client still require a copy of this invoice, you can download a copy from the Invoices summary view and share it. The client can also download it from the project’s invoice information on the Client Hub, if they have Admin or Accounts permissions. |
...
If you leave the “client” option selected, the accountant contact will receive the invoice. You can optionally add one more CC secondary contact to receive this invoice. To do this, use the Invoice Contact search field to find and select from any of the client’s registered contacts in the VMSX database.
If there is no registered accountant contact, you will need to add a primary contact to receive this invoice.
Note: You can change this the secondary contact at any time, but you cannot change the Accountant contact form within the project.
