Professional Services

Track billable time against clients and projects, and let consultants submit invoices through a portal — in the same place you capture bills.

Architecture practices, agencies and studios bill for time as much as they buy supplies. Sumext keeps time tracking and document capture together, so hours and invoices reach the books through one reviewed pipeline instead of a separate app for each.

Questions

How this solution works

Does this replace job costing or project billing software?

No. Sumext tracks billable time and captures documents for your books — it doesn't do job costing or generate client invoices from project budgets.

Can consultants submit their own invoices?

Yes. The contractor portal lets consultants submit invoices and timesheets directly from their phone, for review before anything enters your books.
