Product Overview
Sage Job Costing is designed for any business which charges on the basis of time, material, labour and other costs. It allows you to accurately track these costs and then automatically generate invoices to your customers, based on their choice of billing methods. In addition, it is a powerful tool for business analysis as it enables you to see at a glance how much you have spent on each job. With this information, you can take informed decisions about how to manage costs for improved profitability.
Sage Job Costing is designed to integrate with Sage Line 50. Together, the two software packages give you a powerful tool for cost accounting, with maximum accuracy yet minimum effort. You can post directly from Sage Job Costing to Sage Line 50 and all the necessary transactions – including customer records, ledgers and profit & loss – will automatically update.
Flexibility is inbuilt, in recognition of the fact that every business has differing requirements for cost control and analysis. You can choose how costs and revenues are broken down. The various cost elements can be sub-divided into as much detail as you want, making it easy to measure and control all your projects.
Sage Job Costing Professional offers additional features, such as purchase order processing and batch timesheet entry, that are ideal for companies with more complex or specialised requirements.
