Alladdin

From timesheet to invoice, with the margin in view

A consultant's stock is hours. Alladdin records them against the client and project, values them at the rate you set, turns them into an invoice and shows what each engagement earned once your costs are counted.

  • Hours logged per client and project
  • Rates per person, client or project
  • Budget against actual in real time

Log every billable hour where it belongs

Your team logs time against a client and project with a timer or a timesheet. Give each person an hourly cost and Alladdin calculates what every project costs you as the hours come in.

  • Project-level tracking

    Assign hours to projects and tasks and see the cost break down.

  • Cost per team member

    An hourly cost per person, applied automatically to their entries.

  • Billable and non-billable

    Mark the hours you will invoice and keep the rest as internal time.

Turn tracked hours into an invoice

Pick the project, review the billable hours and create the invoice without retyping a line. Set a different rate for a client, a project or a team member, and attach the breakdown for the client.

  • Invoice from hours

    Billable hours become invoice lines at the agreed rate.

  • Flexible rate structures

    Rates per client, project or person to match your pricing.

  • TVA and ICE on the invoice

    TVA by line and the client's ICE on business invoices.

See profitability as it happens

Compare each project's budget with what it has actually cost, then look across your whole portfolio to see which engagements earn and which drain the team. Adjust the scope or the price while it still matters.

  • Budget against actual

    How each project performs against its budget.

  • Portfolio overview

    Profitability across all active projects on one screen.

  • Workload per person

    Who has room next week and who is stretched.

Proposals, retainers and the pipeline

Follow each proposal from first meeting to signed quote, and bill monthly retainers from a recurring invoice. Upcoming invoices feed the cash forecast so you can see the months ahead.

  • Pipeline by stage

    Proposals waiting and what they are worth in MAD.

  • Retainers

    The same invoice on its date, every month.

Fees and TVA for consultants

  • Consulting is generally invoiced with TVA at 20%. Set the rate per line and confirm the treatment of your activity with your accountant.
  • Put your ICE on every invoice and the client's ICE on business invoices.
  • Some professions have rules of their own on fees; Alladdin does not replace them.
  • Payments by transfer or cheque, matched against your bank statement.

Questions from consulting firms

Can I set a different hourly rate for each client?

Yes. Rates can differ by client, by project or by team member.

Can I send the client a breakdown of hours?

Yes. Export the hours of a project and attach the breakdown to the invoice.

Can I work out the margin on a fixed-fee engagement?

Yes. Log hours as usual and compare their cost with the fee you invoiced, project by project.

Does it handle expenses I re-bill to clients?

You can add expenses and supplier invoices to a project and put them on the client's invoice as lines.

Can my accountant see the books?

Yes. Invite your accountant to your account to review entries and prepare TVA periods on the same data.
