Overview Key Features View Demo Request Info Purchase

PortalProdigy provides everything you need to track time and bill clients. The process begins with a service request; a work order is created to specify the scope of work, cost, and terms; the client approves the work order; billable time is entered by task (service type); billable time can be adjusted if necessary; client is invoiced for work or work is billed against retainer. Flexible options accommodate a variety of billing methods. Includes ability to setup self service request entry allowing customers to enter service requests online, approve Work Orders, and make credit card payments.
