Margin by job in SimPro

You can see job costs in SimPro. You can see invoiced revenue. But getting to true margin per job — once you've added labour burden, materials variance, and the overheads SimPro doesn't track — means dumping it all into a spreadsheet and hoping the formulas didn't break.

So most SimPro users either don't look at job margin properly, or they look at it three months late when the bookkeeper reconciles the quarter.

How it works

VibeCFO connects to SimPro and to your accounting system at the same time. EVA sees the full picture: what each job actually cost, what it actually billed, and what your real margin was after the bits SimPro doesn't capture.

  • Ask in plain English. "Which jobs made the most margin last month?" "Which client gives us the worst margin?" "Show me jobs under 20% margin." EVA answers in seconds.
  • No reports to build. Cut margin by job type, crew, client, suburb, anything. EVA figures out how to slice it.
  • Catch losing jobs while they're still running. EVA flags jobs where actual costs are tracking ahead of the quote, before they blow out.

Frequently asked questions

How do I see margin per job in SimPro?
SimPro shows job costs and revenue but pulling true margin per job — including labour burden, materials variance, and overhead allocation — usually means exporting to a spreadsheet. VibeCFO connects directly to your SimPro data and shows margin by job, by month, by crew, or by client. Just ask EVA.
Why does my SimPro margin look different to my accountant's number?
Because SimPro reports estimated margin in real time, but your accountant reconciles actuals against your accounting system (Xero, MYOB, etc). VibeCFO pulls both sides and shows the gap so you know which jobs are eating your real margin.
Can I see margin by job type or by crew?
Yes. EVA breaks margin down by any cut you ask for — by job type, by lead tradesperson, by client, by suburb, by month. No reports to build.
