What the work actually made, not what it invoiced
What it does
How is profit worked out?
Off the line items, never the invoice total. Line prices and costs are net figures and the invoice total includes VAT, so mixing them flatters the margin by the whole VAT rate — which is the commonest way a job looks twenty percent better than it was. Cancelled invoices, account credit and a job's deposit counted twice are all excluded.
What if I have not put costs against everything?
The figure is worked out on the lines that do have a cost, and the page prints beside it what percentage of the work that speaks for. An uncosted line is unknown, not free, so it is left out rather than counted as pure profit — and you are told, because a margin that quietly speaks for a third of the job is worse than no margin at all.
Does it tell me what an hour of my time earns?
Yes, where both halves exist: the money off the job and the hours clocked against it. A job only counts when it has both, and a single forgotten clock-on is capped at fourteen hours so one mistake cannot wreck every rate on the page. Nothing clocked at all reports as unmeasured rather than as zero, because there is no way to tell a quiet week from an unrecorded one.
Can I see how busy each person really is?
Yes, and it is counted from the day that person first clocked on rather than from the start of the date range. Otherwise a business that switched time tracking on last month sees its whole team at two percent across a year, which tells you nothing except that the report is wrong.
Does it show profit per person?
It shows profit per job, attributed to whoever the job was assigned to, which is the only way the ratio is real. The page says plainly that whoever gets sent to the tight-priced work will show a lower rate through no fault of theirs — a number that needs that caveat should carry it rather than have it discovered.
What about money owed to me?
Debtor ageing deliberately ignores the period selector, because what is owed today is owed today whichever range you pick. The card says so on screen rather than leaving somebody to wonder why the figure did not move.
Does it understand markup versus margin?
Yes, and it asks you which your percentage box means. Thirty percent markup on a £100 cost is £130; thirty percent margin is £142.86. Both are shown next to each other wherever one is typed, and a margin of a hundred percent or more is refused by name rather than priced, because at that point the cost would have to be nothing.
Can I get the figures out?
Yes — a CSV, or a PDF of the page. There is also a weekly summary by email if you want the headline without signing in, and a year-end records pack that gathers what an accountant usually asks for.
What it does not do
Worth knowing before you spend an afternoon on it rather than after.
It is not accounting software and does not claim to be. There is no profit and loss, no balance sheet, and nothing filed.
It cannot report on work it does not hold. Cash jobs written in a book and never entered are invisible, and the page would rather be blank than guess.
The team report counts field workers only, not office staff. Widening it would move every existing business's figures overnight, and "utilisation" means something different at a desk.
There is no custom report builder. The reports answer specific questions; a blank canvas you have to design is a different product.

Questions, answered
Does it show profit per job?
Yes, worked out from the line items rather than the invoice total, so VAT does not flatter it. Jobs with no costs recorded are left out and the page says what proportion of the work the figure covers.
Can I see what an hour of work earns?
Yes, for jobs that have both money and clocked hours against them. Jobs with no time recorded report as unmeasured rather than as zero.
Is markup the same as margin?
No. Thirty percent markup on a £100 cost gives £130; thirty percent margin gives £142.86. You choose which your percentage means and both figures are shown wherever one is typed.
Can I export the reports?
Yes, as a CSV or a PDF, and there is a weekly summary by email as well as a year-end records pack for your accountant.
