What this module covers
- Task and milestone tracking per project
- Timesheet logging against specific projects or tasks
- Budget tracking against actual spend
- Resource allocation across concurrent projects
- Project profitability reporting connected to finance
Why connect project tracking to finance
A project tracker that lives separately from your accounting system can show you tasks are on schedule while the project is quietly losing money — labour and material costs need to flow into the same system that's tracking the budget for the comparison to mean anything.
Who this is for
Businesses running client projects, internal initiatives, or job-costed work — professional services, agencies, contractors and any business billing time or tracking cost against specific jobs.
Engagement & pricing
Priced based on the number of concurrent projects, team size, and whether client billing needs to be generated directly from tracked time and expenses.
Avoiding timesheet fatigue
The most common reason project time-tracking fails isn't the software — it's staff avoiding a clunky, high-friction timesheet process. We configure logging to be as fast as possible (task pickers instead of free text, sensible defaults) since accurate project costing depends entirely on people actually filling it in.
Connecting project time to what it actually costs
A project tracker that shows tasks and deadlines but not real cost against budget only tells half the story. Because this module connects to Finance & Accounting, time and resource costs roll up into actual project profitability, not just a completion percentage.
Keeping resource allocation realistic
Overcommitted teams are usually invisible until a deadline slips. Resource allocation across active projects is visible in one view, so a team lead can see when someone's assigned to more concurrent work than they can realistically deliver, before it becomes a missed deadline. Task dependencies are tracked too, so a delay in one task automatically flags downstream tasks that are now at risk, rather than that risk only becoming visible once the deadline itself is missed. Budget versus actual spend is tracked per project phase, not just at the whole-project level, so overruns are caught at the stage where they happened rather than discovered only at project close.
ERP platforms we work with
We're not tied to one platform — we implement and configure whichever fits your business, including:
Frequently asked questions
Yes — billable hours and expenses logged against a project can be pulled directly into an invoice, reducing manual re-entry.
The module shows team members' allocation across all active projects, flagging over-commitment before it becomes a scheduling problem.
It can for teams that want project costs directly connected to ERP finance data. If you prefer a dedicated PM tool for day-to-day task management, we can integrate it with the ERP instead.
Yes — time tracking against specific projects and tasks is supported, with billable/non-billable distinction where you need to invoice clients based on hours worked.
