One of the more difficult aspects of tracking a project’s time and costs is the coordination of all the people on the project team. ResQ's Project Management tool allows a project manager to track projects and manage various accounting items, like invoices and purchase orders in one interface.

Project overview
When you’re actually running a project, you need to have all of the people who are working on it, track their time on a regular basis so you can keep track of progress against budget. Project views are provided from the top down. The Project Master Console provides visibility for all active projects.

By storing information about the time each project member spends on given tasks and being able to pull together data from all aspects of the project ResQ can bring the progress/budget picture into focus.

Using ResQ's Projects function is pretty simple. It's built into the product; all aspects of the project; sales orders, workorders, invoices, purchase orders, vendor invoices, service calls, miscellaneous expense and revenues, etc. are all tied into the project in a rolled up view and it's in real-time. ResQ Projects even includes Document Management to centralize the various documents that are produced and tracked during projects.

Collaboration is at the root ResQ Projects
ResQ Projects are designed to be a collaborative tool, so you can add new members to any project in progress, add new schedule events and tie together new accounting activities as you progress through the project. All members can access the project details and add their own task and time data updates.

Another useful collaboration feature ResQ Projects is the centralization of all customer information. Project information is stored and accessed in a single location to prevent information and effort being duplicated.

Existing information can be linked to a project or new information can be created from the project, which is in turn automatically tied in.

A project is accessed from one form and all the project's details are accessed from within that form with the use of detail tabs. Each detail tab can contain an unlimited amount of items, allowing large amounts of detail to be easily organized.

Time-tracking / billing feature comes in handy
ResQ includes time-tracking and billing: a timer function that allows to try your time and billing rates for projects. Project members can use the timer function to determine exactly how much time they spend on specific tasks. You can start the timer when you begin working and turn it off when you’re finished, and ResQ automatically enters the time in the project-tracking database. Or if you simply enter a time total if you are entering the information after the fact. Time Billing allows you to enter or selected Categories, Sub-Categories as well as descriptions for each time entry that can explain how the time was spent.

Time Billing Invoices
ResQ Project streamlines the process of generating invoices. Because the time and billing data is tracked in the system, generating invoices can take far less time than having to manually calculate them and complete the forms. As long as members have entered time and expense data correctly, the process is largely automated. An invoice can be automatically created for any time period, for any customer and the revenue can be allocated to any GL account.

Because Projects are integrated with ResQ's complete accounting module, customer terms, currency type, and other accounting information is readily available.
