All project-related data, such as project status, contracts, phases, costs, revenues etc., are stored in the project master.
Systematic Project Definition
Systematic Project Definition
From the outset, the automated project definition of ProjectManagement ensures a systematic approach in defining new projects. To save time you can use project templates or previous projects. Once the project is created, all costs and revenues are assigned correctly to the appropriate accounts and the project data is included in the analyses.
Hierarchical project phases
When you create the project, you possibly want to define also project phases. Project-Management supports a hierarchical struc-ture in multiple phases.
Document management
The project master has a folder for project-related documents like presentations, calcula-tions, specifications or e-mails that allows you to check-in or check-out documents for further treatment.
ELO, the document management solution for electronic archiving, provides more com-prehensive options. ELO integrates via an interface with SAP Business One.
Planning versions
When planning a project, you can try out different planning versions and store these versions in the system.
Contracts in ProjectManagement
An integral part of the project is the project contract. The project contract includes the products, services and travel costs agreed with the customer.
Accounting types
ProjectManagement supports various types of contract, e.g. fixed price contract, service at cost contract, maintenance contract and call-off contract. The solution supports also phase or milestone billing, down payments, final account, periodic accounting etc.
Integrated quotation creation
ProjectManagement supports the internal cooperation when preparing a sales quota-tion. The sales employee, for example, defines in the contract the services and items to be performed and the colleagues from the special department add the duration of the services in the project planning. The planning data for the services, items or travel expenses are included automatically as sales prices in the calculation.
Profitability analysis
The calculation function assists you in quickly determining whether a project can be carried out economically. Because ProjectManage-ment calculates and visualizes the actual and percentage revenue for the contract posi-tions.
Easy Quotation Costing
Sales quotation document
When the calculation is completed, Project-Management generates a sales quotation in the corporate design of your business. You can print the document directly from ProjectManagement and send it together with all attachments by post or e-mail to the customer.
Cost controlling
You can check at any time whether the contractually agreed costs for the project are in line with the budget. The solution allows even to prevent further time sheet entries for a project if the costs are already exceeded.
ProjectManagement supports the entire sales quotation process including planning, calculation and document generation.
Clear Resource Planning
Different planning views
ProjectManagement offers sophisticated planning options like Gantt planning, stan-dard planning or periodic planning. With all types of planning, the times as well as the services and the associated costs are always present in the background.
Employee or resource pool planning
You can plan employees or resource pools and see directly whether the planned re-sources are available at the requested time and to what extent they are used.
After the sales order has been placed, you can assign the services planned on resource pools by drag and drop to individual employees.
ProjectManagement enables different views on a project: The Gantt chart, for example, provides a visual overview of periods and capacity overloads.
Skill management
Employee skills that are defined in the em-ployee master assist you in the planning.
Employee calendar
Different calendars are considered in the planning, e.g. for part-time staff, regular employees and freelancers. The solution considers also holidays and vacation in the planning.
Planning changes at current project
If necessary, you can make changes at the current project, e.g. in case of sick leave or date changes on the part of the customer. You can modify planning data, move dates or split planning dates. The data is updated automatically on each level (time, costs, resources and analyses).
Data transfer from Microsoft Project
Planning data from Microsoft Project can be simply imported and further handled in ProjectManagement.
Interfaces to Microsoft Outlook
When planning is completed, you can auto-matically inform the employees via Outlook of the planned dates, project phases and tasks.
Resource utilization

Flexible Data Entry
Entry of services independent of
location and time

Different input devices
ProjectManagement provides different input devices for time recording, e.g. smartphone, iPhone, iPad, barcode, laser pen or touch screen.
Entry of attendance time or
project time
ProjectManagement enables you to capture pure attendance times or to record hours for a project and a project phase.
Entry of hours or periods
In addition, it is possible to capture services periodically. This allows you to capture for example the service "User Training" over a period of several days in one process only.
Printing service reports / time sheets
For submission to the customer ProjectMan-agement generates at the touch of a button flexibly definable time sheets for days, weeks, or a month in the corporate design of the company.
Approval of services / working times
After the employees have recorded services, the services are approved by the project manager for invoicing. The project manager decides which of the performed services are billed to the customer.
ProjectManagement provides many different ways to record working times and services.
When approving the hours, the project manager decides on the number of hours that are billed to the customer.
Comfortable Travel Management
Entry of Travel expenses independent
of location and time
Travel expenses can be recorded from any location at any time:
over the Internet or
via smartphone, iPhone or iPad

Up-To-Date-Project Controlling
Analyses at the touch of a button

Over 200 standard reports
ProjectManagement provides over 200 tem-plates for standard reports that include the latest data at the touch of a button, e.g.

These values are transferred to the financial accounting / balance sheet at the touch of a button.
Integrated Support Desk

After completion of the project, the customer relationship does usually not end because software solutions, for example, must be ser-viced regularly. With the web-based support desk, ProjectManagement includes an easy to use tool for the management of support requests or so-called support tickets.
Ticket handling
From the outset, the customers are involved in the ticket handling because they record the support tickets via Internet in the support desk. The project manager is informed auto-matically by e-mail of a new ticket and can thus react quickly or forward the ticket to a colleague.

Linking images and documents
If required, you can store images or text documents with further information on the support ticket.

Service Level Agreements
ProjectManagement supports the definition, the documentation and the management of service level agreements, for example for response times, in which a specific service should be done.
