Projects

  • The ERPNext Projects module is a comprehensive tool designed for planning, executing, and monitoring projects efficiently.
  • Project Planning: Define project scope, estimate costs, assign departments, link projects to customers (from Sales Orders), and set start and end dates.
  • Task Management: Break projects into assignable tasks, set dependencies, track progress (manual, weighted, or percentage), and create templates for recurring projects.
  • Resource Management: Allocate tasks to individuals or teams, assign timesheets, and track time spent on tasks.
  • Financial Integration: Link projects to cost centers, track estimated versus actual costs, and generate sales invoices directly from project timesheets.
  • Monitoring & Reporting: Visualize project progress using Gantt charts, Kanban boards, and custom dashboards; monitor profitability by cost center or employee.
  • Workflow Management: Manage project status (Active / Inactive / Completed), define completion methods, and send automated status update notifications.
