and confidently, making Sage Job Costing an extremely effective business tool.
Sage Job Costing is equipped with all the features necessary to maintain
accurate details of jobs, projects and contracts and to track and evaluate
actual costs against budgets and projections. This can be done under a wide
range of categories such as timesheets, stock, distribution costs, materials and
labour. Designed to integrate with Sage Line 50 v5 and Sage Payroll, Sage Job
Costing also enables users to import employees' details, tax codes and pay rates
directly into the system, thereby saving time and improving accuracy.
