01 / Job costs & changes
Receipts should tell you more than what to give the accountant.
Review purchases and receipts, allocate them to the right job and see them alongside recorded labour. Your financial picture depends on complete, correctly entered costs and commercial values.
From our experience at Atlas Construction
We had a pile of receipts for the accountant, but no useful way to see which job they belonged to. Once costs came together, we could finally review profit and loss by job.

02 / Job costs & changes
Agree the extra before the work starts.
Price the change, record the client’s decision and carry approved work into the relevant valuation workflow. Create invoices from supported workflows and follow payments and outstanding balances.
From our experience at Atlas Construction
One job changed throughout: finishes, bathroom layouts, first-floor alterations and an added loft conversion. Managing change orders and valuations was critical to keeping the job commercially viable.

Useful questions
Understand the workflow.
Then put it to work.
Does an approved change order guarantee payment?
No. It records the agreement and supports the commercial discussion. Payment remains subject to the contract and circumstances.
Are profit and cash in the bank the same thing?
No. Recorded costs, valued work, invoicing and payments are distinct measures. The dashboard must be understood in that context.
