Features & Benefits

Sage Coretime measures and increases Productivity, Recovery and Profitability giving Architects a quick ROI - typically within 90 days.
It has the ability for you to view "real-time" work-in-progress on a client, project, or phase-by-phase basis against set budgets - an invaluable management tool.
Coretime will record time and expenses, incorporating the phase structure for projects as outlined by the RIAI.
100% web enabled, staff can enter data including expenses via a network or the internet anytime or anywhere.
Data can be captured and analysed at group, client, project, activity, task or schedule level.
Invoices can be created, printed or attached to emails easily and quickly, reducing duplication of work and increasing accuracy of information using customized templates.
The time and expenses recorded allow you to charge the correct rate. You can charge on position, budget, or override and only show charge-out rates to those who have authority.
The invoiced value does not necessarily correspond to the value of work-in progress. You can choose to invoice for more or less. The Recovery (the percentage difference between the value of WIP and invoice) can then be reviewed against projects, clients, billing managers or your entire business. One of our key metrics is achievement of 100+% recovery for Architects.
Simple notes can be made against an entry, which help to qualify the time spent, which makes renegotiation of fees easier.
There are over 200 comprehensive classified reports, allowing you to see the data the way you want it. Reports can be customized or taken on the road with easy export to Excel. Project Progress Reporting enables Architects to see on a continuous basis how a project is performing on a phase-by-phase basis.
Using quick view shows the week at a glance and ensures timesheets are full and days where timesheets are incomplete will be shown in bold.
As work on a task begins, a timesheet entry is added and the task progress is updated automatically, so there's no need to re-enter any data.
The Task Manager feature enables managers to assign tasks, and colour coded indicators show tasks pending, part complete and completed at a glance.
The Staff Planner enables you to switch from project view to employee view to ensure all staff are utilised optimally and ensure that the proper resources are assigned to projects.
Managers can approve timesheets online and/or lock data online.
Sage Coretime integrates with Sage and other accounting solutions, MS project and Microsoft Outlook and links with PDAs that are C based.
There are no limits to the number of people who can access Sage Coretime.
