BOQ and RA bills. From measured work to client bill.

Keep the BOQ in the app, record the work done against it, and raise the next running-account bill from what is executed but not yet billed.

The problem

FAQ

About BOQ & RA bills.

Can I import my existing BOQ?

Yes. Download the template, fill it from your Excel sheet and import it. If a row has an error, nothing is imported until it is fixed.

Is there a separate RA bill format?

The RA bill becomes a sales invoice to the client, so it uses the GST tax invoice PDF.

Can progress be entered at the site?

Yes. BOQ progress can be recorded offline and syncs later.
