Not necessarily. You could just create two payroll expense accounts, one 
chargeable and one not-chargeable and split the payroll expense between the 
two. Then you can run the P&L report with only the chargeable account selected.

Better still, have the employee keep a time sheet recording the time spent on 
each task and the bookkeeper can assign the expense to chargeable or 
not-chargeable depending on the actual time spent. That extends to other 
expenses as well.

But using a P&L report for billing is weird. More normally you'd negotiate a 
billing rate for the employee's time and for whatever other expenses you incur 
and use the business features to generate invoices to the funding organization.
