Project estimate overview

A project estimate enables you to approximate how much a project might cost to complete. Then, you can track the actual costs against your estimate to determine your project's profitability.

Use the project, task, and cost type (for Construction subscriptions only) dimensions to capture and track actual project amounts from other applications, like the General Ledger (GL), Accounts Payable (AP), and Purchasing. Report on your project costs using dimensions.

For Construction subscriptions only, you can use cost types to track task details, like labor or overhead.
