Start using Project costing in 3 steps

The same three steps wait for you as a checklist on the module's first screen, and most tick themselves as you do them.

  1. Step 1

    Bill progress on the project

    Claims and milestones count on it.

  2. Step 2

    Charge costs to it

    Pick the project on purchases and expenses.

  3. Step 3

    Watch the margin

    Losing jobs show on top.

Add it when you sign up, or any time later from Subscription & billing.

Project costing

What it does for your business

Every progress claim and milestone billed on the construction or interior POS counts on its project, and every purchase and expense can be charged to a project with one field. The board shows each project's contract value, what was billed, what it cost and the profit and margin so far, with the projects at a loss or on a thin margin at the top, so you see a job going wrong while there is still time to act.

  1. Billed and cost per project

  2. Purchases and expenses charged to a project

  3. Profit and margin so far

  4. Projects at a loss first
