Not quite. It's supposed to return objects that can be billed on. The  
only application that currently uses this information to actually  
spend money (time, actually) on these objects is Hermes. This is also  
use to create invoices in Hermes, though I have to admit that I never  
got this working or even understanding correctly.

Both Sesha and Hermes are already using Turba to retrieve the client list.
