Job costs

With the ProjectSight API, you can pull job costs from your ERP into the ProjectSight budget so that you can see the actual costs. You can also drill down into the job costs to see where the costs come from.

The following budget columns include the job costs in their calculations:

  • Actual Cost To This Period
  • Actual Cost This Period
  • Actual Cost To Date
  • Actual Cost To Complete
  • Actual Percent Complete

Direct Costs column

In the budget, the Direct Costs column displays the non-commitment portion of the job costs where the type is Payroll, Expense, Subcontractor Invoice or General Invoice. You can limit access to this column in the budget field permissions in security roles.
