THE CHALLENGE
The practice's finances lived in notebooks and spreadsheets. Money arrived from several clients across several ongoing projects, and costs were written down wherever there was room. Answering a simple question - what did this project actually earn, and what did it cost to run - meant an evening of adding up by hand, and the answer was only ever as good as the arithmetic.
THE SOLUTION
A private, password-protected finance system on Laravel. Income and expenses are recorded as one stream of transactions, each tagged to a client, a project, and a category, so a single entry answers several questions at once. The dashboard opens on the numbers that matter: what came in, what went out, what's left. Reports filter that history by client, by project, by category, or by date range.
THE RESULT
The practice's finances now live in one place. Every payment and every cost is filed as it happens, and the question that used to mean an evening with a calculator - what did this project earn, what did it cost to run - is now a filter and a glance.
