How does job costing work in Jobber?
View your profit margin as you complete the job
See the profitability of each job based on the price and total costs you’ve tracked.
Calculations automatically update as costs are added and changed, so you can always stay on top of your margins.
Cost your materials accurately
Add material costs spent on the job. Select items from your products and services saved in Jobber, or add new line items as needed.
Factor every labor hour into your pricing
Set a default labor rate for each of your employees. When they track their visit time using the Jobber mobile app, their labor rate and hours will be automatically calculated as labor costs for the job.
For more accurate labor costing, use location timers to automatically track your team’s time so you can ensure your timesheets are accurate and always up to date.
Keep track of on-the-job expenses
Track expenses from anywhere to stay on top of any additional costs.
Then, upload accompanying receipts for more accuracy and easy reimbursement.
Compare profitability from job to job
Generate and view customizable reports to easily compare details for multiple jobs—price, costs, profits, custom fields, and more.
Knowing where you win (and where you don’t) helps you improve your pricing and costing for future jobs.
