If your business works out charges based on costs for time, material, labour or other project costs, then Sage 50 Job Costing software is designed specifically with you in mind.  Through its use, you can track these costs and automatically generate customer invoices based on how they are charged. Sage 50 Job costing also gives you an insight through the ability to calculate how much each individual job costs and where money could be saved.  Take advantage of making informed decisions about how to make jobs more profitable.

Full integration can be achieved with Sage 50 Accounts and Sage 50 Payroll so you have an accurate perspective on how much jobs are likely to cost, based on previous ones or pre-set criteria already entered into the system.   Sage 50 Job costing allows you to set the prices to cover your expenses and make a profit, thresholds can be set and project/ job measures standardised.  Complete all of your cost accounting, with maximum accuracy and minimum effort, with Sage 50 Job Costing and see all necessary transactions – including customer records, ledgers and profit and loss – automatically update across this module and those other integrated Sage 50 modules entirely.
