Project Billing
Demonstration Video 

Microsoft Dynamics SL - Project Billings screen is one of the most flexible project invoice generation screens in any ERP product. However, it is best suited to "Time & Materials" or "Ad Hoc Amount" billing.  Dynamics SL offers subsidiary functions that help address other models such as "Percent Billing", "Construction Billing" or "Scheduled Billing".  These subsidiary functions use separate screens that feed data into the primary Invoice screen. Renown have consolidated all billing models into a single screen, removing double handling, improving transparency, increasing efficiency and adding features and functionality. Control all billing from a single screen and provide billing staff with more information and flexibility.

  Billing amounts can be reviewed and adjusted at summary levels.  
  Set Bill amount summaries by Task, Resource and/or any other invoice detail field.
  Foreign currency revenue is re-valued based on the exchange rates at time of billing.
  Load Billing Schedule items based on physical milestones and/or adjust summary bill amounts by value or percentage.
  Attach any number of your custom Crystal Report - Invoice Formats for easier and more flexible definition of invoice layouts
 
 Bill Summary Amounts     Milestone Billing by %
Renown's Billing screen provides two grids, a summary sub-totals grid and the traditional invoice details grid. Different projects can display different summary sub-totals: Resource, Task, Labour Class, Revenue Type, and others, or any combination. Users can: Bill, Write-off or Defer amounts at the summary level. Adjustments auto-apply to the details but can be adjusted in the detail grid where desired.

A Billing Format can be configured to display the summary row Budget, Actual and 'Percentage To Bill'. Summary balances are pre-calculated based on invoice details, but can be adjusted to set Bill amounts as a percentage of budget. Milestones can be billed by percentage or amount. This effectively rolls Construction Billing into invoice and adjustment with loaded values for budget and actual.

 Enhanced Multi-Currency       Flexible Invoice Formats
Renown has enhanced the currency functionality in the SL billing process. Revalue all earned revenue to the rate of the exchange rate on the bill. Optionally recognising gain/loss on unbilled revenues or adjust base revenue earned.  Report and revalue unrecognised gain/loss on earned and unbilled revenues. The Dynamics BI Invoice Format can be complex and inflexible. Often it is easier and quicker to simply build a new invoice format in Crystal Reports. Renown allow any free form Crystal Invoice layout to be linked to a Bill avoiding the need to create or use BI Invoice Format. Link multiple Crystal formats to any Project.
 Load Bill Schedules       E-mail Bills
Commonly Scheduled Billing is date based and periodically all items due for billing are generated based on the items due date.  Some projects may require a list of items to be billed based on achievement of a physical milestone, which can occur on any date. Renown's Billing screen allows  schedule lines to be loaded into the bill regardless of dates. Any number of free form Crystal Reports invoice layouts can be associated to the project.  You can use SLs standard two: Invoice and Attachment or use Renown's advance invoice print to associate an unlimited number of Crystal layouts. These formats can be previewed, printed or e-mailed as an attachment to the client or other recipients, such as the Project Manager.
