THE WORKFLOW
From an approved timesheet to reconciled payment, automatically
1
Timesheet approved by the project manager
Once a PM approves a timesheet, it's automatically added to that client's next billing run.
Time Tracking & Timesheets2
Billing type applied per client contract
Fixed-fee, T&M, or retainer billing rules are already set on the client record - no manual selection.
Client Billing & Invoicing3
Multi-currency invoice generated
Invoices generate in the client's local currency, with tax handling applied automatically.
Client Billing & Invoicing4
Invoice sent through the client portal
Clients receive and approve the invoice in the same portal they use for project status.
Client Portal5
Payment reconciled automatically
Incoming payments match to the invoice they belong to without manual entry.
Client Billing & Invoicing6
Revenue recognized against the fee schedule
Revenue recognition follows each engagement's actual fee schedule, not a flat monthly assumption.
Reports & Analytics7
Month-end close from one ledger
Close pulls from one system instead of reconciling CRM, project, and accounting exports separately.
Reports & Analytics8
Every action logged on an audit trail
Every invoice creation, edit, and approval is timestamped and immutable.
