Project Budget Project Cost Management Software	10 Minute Tour Screen 16 of 23
Generic budget tracking software is typically not geared for project budgets. You need to use specialist project accounting software or project cost management software to properly manage your project. Typically project budgets span financial years and look at a different breakdown of costs to a corporate budget. Project Administrator software overcomes this limitation. It enables you to track both the project budget and project expenditure.
Project Cost Management
For each project a budget can be set up using a chart of accounts that is tailored for the project but maps back to the company accounts. For example, the company may have one account for external consultants but the Project Manager wants to differentiate between company A and B. He can set up accounts for each contractor but still combine the figures to compare with reports coming from the corporate accounts. Expenditure in your project accounting software can be tracked as either "actual" or "committed". It can be sorted into different orders, and even downloaded into Microsoft Excel for further analysis. This project cost management software will allow you to understand what is happing with your project budget instead of interpreting the company accounts.
