# How can I add information about additional expenses?

Depending on the work you do, you may need to buy certain materials or make other additional purchases to complete a task. Don't worry, Discontract has already thought about it, and made it possible for you to include any additional expenses to the final cost of the order.

Before you mark your task as fully completed, you'll be able to edit information about it on the Discontract platform, such as the exact duration of your work and any extra costs incurred. The platform will then automatically calculate the final price of the service, including the amount indicated.

Remember to keep all relevant receipts confirming your purchases. Moreover, to avoid any misunderstandings, we highly advise checking and agreeing with the client first before making any purchases or adding information about them to your task summary.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.discontract.com/en/for-service-providers/conducting-tasks/how-can-i-add-information-about-additional-expenses.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
