Costs & profit

What's come in, what's gone out, and what each project actually made.
Your business money at a glance: profit this month, the year so far, the next three months, and profit per project.How it works
  • Money in is invoices marked paid. You don't log income here; it comes from Invoices.
  • Money out is every cost logged below. Subscriptions are counted once a month (yearly ones are spread over 12 months).
  • Partner fees are added for you when you approve a partner brief, and show as owed until you mark them paid.
  • Project profit is the project's value, less its costs and the time logged on it at each person's internal rate.
