ArCHinvoice™ (<–Click here)

ArCHinvoice™ calculates your invoices after you enter basic data and has features to help you get paid more promptly.  This is a spreadsheet template that automates much of your invoice calculation and makes it obvious how much your firm is charging and when the invoice is due (things that not many other invoice formats appear to do very well).  Also: ArCHinvoice™ comes with ArCH ProjAccount™ (see elsewhere in the ArCHstore for ProjAccount™), which is a more robust application, using ArCHinvoice™ as one of its components.

ArCHchart

 

 

ArCHchart™   (<–Click here)

ArCHchart™ provides you with a quick and easy project progress chart that you can provide to your Clients, that informs them what you’ve accomplished so far, where you’re at now, what’s next, and what remains ahead.  A simple means to explain the architectural project process to your Clients. A happy Client in an informed Client.  Manage expectations.  Help them understand where they fit into the project process.


ProjAccount

 

 

 

ArCH ProjAccount™

Contains 39 preformatted spreadsheet invoices, professionally formatted, that also link to a Master Invoice List, automatically.  Makes invoicing a breeze, with the added benefit of having all of a project’s invoices summarized on a index list, totaling what you’ve invoiced and been paid for a project.  Can’t operate without it, once you’ve starting using it.
Note: ProjAccount™ also incorporates ArCHinvoice™, the ArCH semi-automated invoicing format template. So: if you are already using ArCHinvoice™, you already know most of how to use ProjAccount™.
Tired of complicated database accounting programs?
This isn’t that.  As a matter of fact, ProjAccount™ has at its center, the Master Invoice List, which is 99% automated, automatically reporting what each of the linked invoices tell it for each invoice amount, due date and summary of the invoice work.
In other words, after you make a new invoice, the Master List already has the information from that so you can simply click on the Master List and see how all of your invoices for a particular project total for various categories, such as Professional Fees earned and Reimbursables.
Note: ProjAccount™ is Not intended to be a comprehensive whole-firm database accounting system.  ProjAccount™ is a multi-sheet single file spreadsheet application focused on invoicing for a given project and totaling those invoices so that  you can understand where you are at on a given project for billing and how that compares with your overall estimated possible fee.  Project Accounting (not whole-firm accounting, which you should handle with other applications).
This application “thinks” the way Architects do.
