Job Profitability

It’s an art. We let you master it.

Complete Detail

Every job cost detail accumulates in Chronicle on a job-by-job basis. We pull non-labor costs (materials, item charges, and subcontracting labor) from your accounting system and show them using the same general ledger accounts. Labor hours and costs are taken from Chronicle for Mobile‘s timekeeper feature.

Real Time Information

Chronicle’s power is in its ability to provide real-time information. This is especially critical in job costing, where real-time analysis of job expenses lets you make mid-job adjustments to enhance profitability. Summarized job cost information on completed jobs across varied time periods helps you spot trends.
