Labour time by job
Track how much worker time belongs to each job so managers can understand labour movement across active work.
Job costing software NZ
Job costing visibility built from real labour time.
smaft helps New Zealand trade and service businesses connect worker time with jobs, projects, and labour reporting for clearer job costing visibility.
Job labour
Understand where labour goes across jobs and projects.
smaft connects worker time tracking with job records, project context, and office review so labour data becomes useful for management decisions.
Project and customer context
Organise jobs around projects and customers so time records are easier to interpret when reviewing work.
Better quoting feedback
Use clearer labour records to compare expected effort with the time that was actually spent on the job.
Office reporting workflow
Give office teams the structure needed to review time, monitor work, and prepare useful labour reports.
Workflow
Job costing starts with clean labour records.
When time entries carry job context, the office can review work with more than a total number of hours.
Set up the job context
Office users organise jobs, projects, customers, and work types before workers begin recording time.
Record labour against the right work
Worker time can be linked to the job instead of sitting in a disconnected timesheet total.
Review labour visibility
Managers can use the records to understand job progress, labour effort, and operational follow-up.
FAQ
Can smaft help with job costing?
smaft helps job costing by connecting worker time records with jobs, projects, customers, and work types so labour effort is easier to review.
Does smaft replace accounting software?
No. smaft focuses on operational time, jobs, timesheets, and labour visibility. It can support better job-costing decisions, but it is not an accounting ledger.
Why does job costing need timesheet data?
Labour is often one of the hardest job costs to understand. Structured timesheet data helps show where worker hours were spent.
