xTuple for Professional Services Companies
Companies who are primarily in the business of providing services will find a lot to like with xTuple. In addition to the core accounting functionality, all three Editions of xTuple feature fully-integrated CRM - Corporate Relationship Management - which includes Customers, Partners, Vendors, and any other kind of corporate entities with whom a company might have relationships.
A key component of CRM is Project Management. Projects can be attached to various types of transactions in xTuple, including Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, and Work Orders. Projects are made up of individual Tasks, each of which can have a budgeted amount of Time and Expense. Users can enter Time and Expense in a sheet format, and those entries will be automatically associated with the appropriate Project and Task.
All the above functionality is available in the free PostBooks Edition of xTuple. The Time and Expense Pro package, developer by xTuple partner Core Services Group (itself a professional services company!) adds manager approval, customer invoicing of approved time and expense - including optional consolidation across multiple sheets - and vouchering of expenses incurred on projects by employees and contractors.
