Job and Time Sheet Entry

The Job costing module in Advanced Business Manager’s allows you to produce estimates to help in pricing the value of the job.  Ideal for the construction industry, you can enter retention information so that when invoices are raised, the retention amount and due date are automatically calculated and accounted for. 

Once the customer gives the approval, you can issue materials directly from the estimate or from supplier quotes that have been obtained and stored during the estimation process.  Purchase orders can be created for estimates using a “wizard” function to ensure accuracy and timing for delivery of materials.

 All types of costs can be tracked against jobs, such as materials, timesheets, labour, cash purchases and subcontractor claims.  Invoicing the job via our project invoicing module allows you to see all costs and claims outstanding against budget prior to posting the invoice.  You can produce a pro forma invoice for approval prior to posting to your accounts.

 The time sheeting module allows tracking of multiple staff working on various jobs at different stages and on different types of work.  Time sheeting seamlessly integrates with ABM’s accounting system.  When staff timesheets are entered, they automatically update the job with the relevant costs immediately.

 Timesheets can be customised for variable work hours, public holidays and various leave types.  Minimum work hours can be specified and timesheets can be setup to stop future postings until current date ranges are completely entered.

 Disbursements such as travel expenses and sundry costs can be processed in the timesheets module and posted against the relevant linked jobs, allowing for an easy way for sundry costs to be added to the job costing module.
