Create a project

Start a new job in a few clicks.

  1. 1Click Projects in the sidebar.
  2. 2Click New Project.
  3. 3Enter the project name, address, client/customer, and start date.
  4. 4Optionally enter Interior Sq Ft (under A/C) and Exterior Sq Ft (under roof) - this powers the interior/exterior cost breakdown on the Budget tab.
  5. 5Choose how you'll bill it: Simple invoicing (invoices + client payments, for residential/smaller jobs) or Progress billing (AIA pay applications with retainage, for commercial/bank-funded jobs). This decides which money tabs show, so the job isn't cluttered with both. You can change it later.
  6. 6Save. The project opens to its tabs.

The address suggests matches as you type, and the Owner/Client dropdown pulls from your existing customers (or pick "New client" and type a name). On the Projects page, use the map toggle to see every job on a map, color-coded by status - on a phone it is under Filter, with the status, type and sort choices.

Nothing here is locked in. Everything you set at creation can be changed later from Project Settings - the gear icon in the project header. See "Change a project's settings".
