Module description

The process from start to finish

Manage your projects in one place, from planning through to final settlement. Track summary tiles in real time to see Total budget, amounts spent, and funds still available. Log your team’s time in the Timesheet view, assigning hours to specific tasks and marking them as billable or non‑billable. Control project expenses, approve costs, and verify related invoices in the details window. Analyse Monthly metrics and Weekly metrics to compare the planned delivery with actual revenue and rates.
