Dashboard Explained

Future WIP and pre-billable work by project, manager and office. Prebill Analysis lets you predict next month's billing run and confirm that resourced work is being captured before the invoicing window closes — essential for studios that front-load invoicing at the start of a project phase.

New in Insights Pro: This dashboard did not exist in Analytics Plus.

How to use it

Run Prebill Analysis in the week before the billing cycle opens to estimate the incoming month's billing. If pre-bill value is significantly lower than the month's revenue target, flag it early so PMs can prioritise completing billable milestones. Cross-reference with Invoicing Progress once the cycle opens to confirm that pre-billed work is being converted to finalised invoices.

Understanding your data

Key Fields

How it's Calculated

Prebill Amount

WIP balance on stages where the project still has a positive residual fee remaining. Represents work eligible for invoicing in the upcoming billing cycle

WIP Balance

Total uninvoiced chargeable value on each project stage as at the current date

Residual Fee

Agreed fee or cap minus invoiced revenue to date — the amount still available to invoice under the contract for each stage

Stage Status

The current status of each project stage. Only active stages with a positive residual are included in the prebill view

Prebill Age (Days)

Age of WIP on pre-billable stages, classified into 0–30, 31–60, and 61+ day buckets. Identifies prebill amounts that have been sitting uninvoiced for extended periods
