By the time the numbers land, the job is finished.

Too complex for small-business accounting, not ready for enterprise ERP. So project market ends up in spreadsheets, and the numbers always arrive too late.

Sound familiar?
You don't know a job's real margin until it is finished.
Progress claims are built by hand, one spreadsheet per project.
Subcontractor and supplier costs are committed but invisible against the budget.
Finance and project managers argue from different numbers.
With Wiise
Every job shows budget, actual, committed and forecast in real time.
Claims and invoices are raised from the system, not rebuilt in Excel.
A purchase order hits the job budget the moment it is raised.
One set of numbers, from the field to the board pack.
PROJECT AND JOB COSTING

See the margin on every job, line by line.

Job and project costing is part of Wiise, not a separate tool you sync to. Track budget against actual as the work happens, and stay in control from quote to completion.

Digger with reports

 

  • Track every job from quote to completion with budget vs actual, labour, materials and overhead.
  • See work-in-progress (WIP) and profitability by job, client or team.
  • Drill into performance by cost centre, resource or task, with unlimited dimensions.
  • Plan people and equipment with capacity management, and track resource utilisation.
  • Quote on site using real-time pricing, availability and scope, so approvals are faster and rework is lower.
  • Forecast revenue, costs and demand, and plan labour and capacity on live data instead of spreadsheets.

Time, people and labour cost

People are your biggest cost. Now they are your clearest number.

Capture time once and connect it to the job, the invoice and the pay run. The guide calls payroll the missing link in your ERP strategy. In Wiise it is built in, and it works whichever way your team records time.

Two ways to capture time, no double entry either way:

Time entered in Wiise

Enter time in Wiise against jobs, projects or cost centres, with validation. Approved time flows into payroll, billing and job costing.

Time entered in payroll

Or enter time straight into payroll, and Wiise imports it back to the project for job costing. Staff who only record time do not each need a Team Member licence, which lowers your licence cost.

And then:

  • Analyse labour cost by project, department or location in real time to understand true margin.
  • Payroll posts to the general ledger automatically, mapped to the right projects and departments.
  • Stay compliant with award interpretation and a managed library of 50 modern awards, plus STP2 and SuperStream.

Project and portfolio reporting

Every project, from progress to profit, in real time.

Dashboards that show where projects stand, so you can act on the ones that need it.

job-cost
  • See progress, milestones and billing status across your projects.
  • Track burn rate, cost-to-complete, cost variance, and project health and risk indicators.
  • Bring labour, materials and subcontractor spend together on every project.
  • Track committed costs from purchase orders against a real-time budget, and catch overruns early.
  • Start from report templates built for construction and professional services, then drill down by cost centre, project or client.
  • Ask questions of your data in plain language with Copilot, and monitor live Power BI dashboards for cash flow, commitments and actual vs budget.

One system, built on Microsoft

Your whole business in one place, inside the Microsoft tools you already use.

  • Accounting, billing, payroll and projects in one system, with a KPMG-designed chart of accounts and automated BAS and GST.
  • Multi-Entity Management for groups, with consolidation, inter-company transactions and eliminations.
  • Get paid faster with Stripe, direct debit and BPay, and bulk invoicing built in.
  • Work inside Outlook, Teams and Excel, and report in Power BI, without leaving the tools your team lives in.
  • Use Copilot across the platform to reconcile faster, analyse data, predict late payments and find what you need.
  • Keep current with monthly Wiise updates on top of Microsoft's releases, and extend to Dynamics 365 or embedded solutions when you need more.

Why Wiise

Different from your accounting software. Different from the other ERPs.

More than accounting
Your accounting package tells you what happened. Wiise costs the job as it runs, so you can act while the project is still live.
Right-sized ERP
Big-tier ERPs are heavy and slow to roll out. Wiise gives project-based firms real job costing without the cost and complexity.
Microsoft-native, made for ANZ
Built on Business Central and developed with KPMG and Microsoft. Hosted in Australian Azure, with awards, STP2, BAS and GST handled. Scales from 20 to 200+ users.

“Without Wiise, we wouldn’t have been able to continue to grow. It’s transformed the business and there are still a lot of capabilities that we haven't utilised yet."

Cameron Rollason, CFO at FVS
