The book for the director
— who has to get it all done before knocking off
Hours, leave, the shift schedule and the bottom line.
The company, not the gut feeling
Contribution margin per job, the whole week's hours approved with one tap, a rota that knows about holidays, absence with a reason, and reports that give answers.
The company, not the gut feeling
Know the feeling of knowing how it's going but not being able to show it? You have a sense of which jobs make money, who still has to log hours, and who you have available next week. The sense is often right. It just isn't something you can act on at seven in the morning.
Here the answers are pages instead of something you have to work out yourself — and whatever is waiting for your decision sits at the top.
What you can do here
Approve the week's timesheets person by person, or the whole week in one tap. Put people on days in a roster that already knows the absences and objects if you book someone who's off. Settle a holiday request. Write a quote, and follow the contribution margin job by job.
And pull out a finished document when the customer, the workshop or the archive asks — customer summary, cutting list, punch list, daily reports, spreadsheet or BCF for BIM.
The bottom line of the job
Know the feeling of only learning whether a job made money once the accountant has been? The quote is in one folder, the materials in an invoice, and the hours in an app. Adding them up is an evening you never get round to.
The finance page does it job by job: revenue, actuals and contribution margin as three numbers at the top, and one line per job with margin in kroner and in percent.
If the margin can't be determined, the field stays empty — it never says zero where we don't know.
Approve the week
Know the feeling that approving hours is a hundred clicks? The entries are in submission order, so the same person turns up seven times, and you lose track of who you've already been through.
Here the queue is grouped per person and per week, with a subtotal on each block. “Approve the week” takes the whole block in one tap, and a rejection can carry a reason.
Changed your mind? “Recently handled by me” sits right below, with an undo button.
Who's where in the week
Know the feeling of putting someone on a day he was given off long ago? The plan is on a whiteboard, the holiday in an email, and neither knows about the other. You find out on Monday morning, when he doesn't turn up.
The roster is a grid with people down the side and the week's seven days across. Absence and school periods are entered in advance, so a booking on top of them is flagged “booked despite absence”.
You assign someone using employee, day, job and a note.
Vacation and absence
Know the feeling of holidays agreed in the corridor and remembered wrong? One says he asked in March, you don't remember it, and the calendar is an email thread nobody can find again.
Here the requests sit at the top with Approve and Decline — and a decline can carry a reason, so it says why.
The month appears as a grid across all employees, and you can log absence directly for someone. If you log it yourself, it's created as approved — and the list “Absence this month” exists so a mistake can be corrected.
Answers, not numbers
Know the feeling when a report hands you a spreadsheet, and then you have to work out what it means? The numbers are right. The question was just a different one from the one the report answers.
Here the reports are named after what you actually ask: who still has to enter hours, what's waiting for me, who do I have available next week, where did the days go.
And for each job you can download six finished documents: customer summary, cutting list, punch list, daily reports, spreadsheet and BCF for BIM.
Your own day
Know the feeling of running the company and forgetting your own week? You're on top of everyone else's hours and none of your own, and your calendar is something you glance at on your phone.
The company is one place. Your own day is another, and it's here: a greeting, today's date, the week's seven day rows, your jobs and your tasks.
If something is waiting for you as a manager, the queue sits as a strip at the top — so you see it before you step into your own week.
