How to read live job profitability

Topic

Every job shows live profitability — revenue against cost and margin — updated as you add labour, materials, expenses and machinery. It's how you know a job is making money before the invoice goes out.

Instructions

1. 1
   Open a job.

   The profitability panel sits near the top of the job.

2. 2
   Add costs as you go.

   Labour, materials, expenses and metered machinery all feed the numbers automatically.

3. 3
   Watch revenue vs cost and margin.

   For cost-plus jobs, revenue reflects charge-out rates and markups; for fixed-price jobs it's the quoted amount against actual cost.
