Job-cost drill-down

The job pressure

Actuals arrive as PDFs — nobody can prove which budget line they hit.

Commercial and anyone running Actuals

On the job

Construction job costing software has to prove which budget line an actual hit — not bury PDFs in a folder. EstiLumina opens a drill-down on every money cell so quotes, POs, bills, and AP draws stay attached to the line.

Split one bill across lines when needed; land labor on cost codes where rates are set. Trade quote and invoice PDFs stay on the same spine as awarded work and field time.

When Job Run awards a trade or the field clocks hours, those actuals rejoin the same story the estimator locked — so project managers stop reconciling three systems at night.

How it works

1. 1

   Open a budget line’s drill-down drawer.

2. 2

   See quotes, POs, bills, and AP draws that feed the cell.

3. 3

   Trace bill line splits and cost-code labor where used.

4. 4

   Rejoin field time and awarded commitments into the same money spine.

What you get

• Source badges for quote / PO / bill / AP
• Split one bill across budget lines; labor lands on cost codes
• Trade quote and invoice PDFs on lines
• AP progress draws vs PO with retainage
• Same spine as awarded work and field actuals

Why teams subscribe

• Every actual traces to the budget line it hit
• Quote, PO, and bill sources stay on the same cell
• Field labor and awarded work share one cost story

Honest boundaries

• Not a full ERP or payroll system.
• Not automatic OCR that invents cost codes without review.
