PRODUCT · PROJECT TRACKINGProject-based accounting

Run a full set of books for every project — inside one company.

Tag any invoice, bill, journal entry or bank line to a project. HeyBen instantly produces a project-level Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement — alongside the consolidated company view, in real time.

How it works

Three steps from invoice to project P&L.

1. Create a project

Set up a project with its own code, customer, start/end dates, budget and currency. Group projects by client, division or location.

2. Tag every transaction

Pick the project on invoices, bills, expenses, journals and bank lines. HeyBen auto-suggests the project based on customer, supplier, description and amount.

3. Filter the ledger by project

Every report, drill-down and AI query supports a project filter. Switch from company-wide to a single project — or compare projects side-by-side.

Three core reports — per project

P&L, Balance Sheet and Cash Flow — for every project.

The same statutory financial statements you produce for the whole company, now scoped to a single project. Drill from any line straight to the underlying journals.

Project P&L

Revenue, direct costs, gross margin, overhead allocation and net profit per project. Compare to budget and forecast remaining cost-to-complete.

  • Revenue recognised by milestone or % complete
  • Direct labour, materials and sub-contractor costs
  • Budget vs actual variance

Project Balance Sheet

See work-in-progress, accrued income, customer deposits, retentions and project-specific receivables and payables — the things hidden inside the company-wide balance sheet.

  • Work-in-progress (WIP) and accrued revenue
  • Customer deposits and retentions held
  • Project receivables and payables aging

Project Cash Flow

Direct-method cash flow per project: cash in from customers, cash out to suppliers and sub-contractors, and the running net cash position of the project at any date.

  • Cash collected vs invoiced
  • Sub-contractor and supplier payment runs
  • Project cash position over time

Who uses it

Built for Hong Kong businesses that live and die by the project.

Construction & renovation

Run WIP, retentions and sub-contractor payments per job. Know real margin before final account.

Creative & marketing agencies

Track revenue, freelance costs and ad spend per client retainer or campaign — billable vs non-billable.

F&B groups with multiple outlets

Each outlet is a project. Compare food cost %, labour % and contribution margin store-by-store.

Property owners & landlords

Each building or unit is a project. See rental income, repairs and net yield per property.

Consulting & professional services

Engagement-level profitability, with time and disbursements posted directly to the project.

Events & production

Each event is a project — deposits, supplier prepayments, on-site cash and final P&L all in one place.
