Project Tracking in Accounts Hosted Vs Reckon One

Gabrielle Foodey

Hello,

I have been a Reckon One User for many many years but our business has matured to a point where I am finding the capability for project tracking does not match my expectations.

I simply want to track expenses like bills against a project in the same way that payroll is tracked.

I want to insert a bill against a project and track whether it has been invoiced.

I want to know what liabilities I have outstanding on a project.

For context we are a construction business.

My accountant is trying to push me to Xero but I have been a reckon user so long I am not sure on the switch.

Can someone provide some insight into whether the feature I am after is available in reckon accounts hosted?

My husband and I and our accountant are the only system users and we need payroll with timesheets tracking upto 5 people.

Any insight would be valuable thanks

Hi Gabrielle

Yes - Reckon One (R1) is a much smaller, more basic system than the Reckon Accounts desktop program.

Reckon Accounts Hosted (RAH) is the top ("Enterprise") version of Reckon Accounts desktop. It is "hosted" on Reckon's encrypted servers (hence the "hosted" name) making it accessible from any device, anywhere, anytime so - for the end user - it's an online experience, but with far greater security.

It has ALL features & functionality in it by default so unlike R1 there are no different modules to be determined/added as RAH includes the lot.

It supports up to 200 users, has full payroll management including STP2, timesheets & job (project) tracking. It also has cash & accrual-basis BAS/tax tracking, estimates/quoting, job costing, advanced inventory, multi currency, multi-company reporting, budgets & forecasting & the ability to search & report on absolutely anything. Here's a direct feature comparison: https://www.reckon.com/au/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Reckon-Accounts-Hosted-vs-Reckon-One-Comparison-table.pdf

I'd recommend accessing the free trial of RAH here: https://www.reckon.com/au/accounts-hosted/
