Financial Analysis Page Fields and Buttons

The fields on this page display financial analysis information.

Field Description
Estimates These figures display the expected financial outcome based upon:
  • The estimate, including time, expenses, and purchases.
  • The forecast outcome based on work hours.
  • The forecast outcome based on work scheduled.
Actuals/Realization These figures display the current actual financial performance of the job.
Billing and Final Profit These figures display the billing and profit. There are two measures of profit:
  • Profit in Progress is the value of the work done to date less the costs incurred.
  • Profit as Billed is what the profit calculation changes to after the job is marked as Billing Complete. The profit is then the total income less total costs.

Marking a job as Billing Complete finalizes your profit figures. TrafficLIVE writes off any unbilled amounts, whereas using Profit in Progress does not, and is, therefore, somewhat of an incomplete picture.
