Project profitability from quote to expense
Link quotes, invoices, collected amounts and expenses to each project, and compare revenue and calculated cost and cost budget and estimated gross margin.
Creating an account does not charge you. Business costs 99 SAR per month including VAT, with automatic renewal, by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay.
Total sales doesn't show if the project itself is profitable. Fawtar collects project documents and costs in one space, calculates the difference between invoiced revenue before tax and recorded expenses before tax, while keeping collected cash visible separately.

Frequently asked questions
Is the figure net accounting profit?
No. It is an estimated gross margin that deducts recorded project expenses from billed revenue before tax. It does not include time, salaries, and overhead except when recorded and linked.
Why does collection appear inclusive of tax?
Because collection displays the cash actually recorded on invoices, while margin calculation depends on revenue and cost before VAT for fair comparison.
Is the quote counted as revenue?
No. The value of active quotes appears as a separate indicator. A quote does not enter profit until it converts to a non-canceled invoice.
Does linking the project change the invoice?
No. Project classification only adds categorization and does not change the amount, line items, totals, or PDF file.
How is non-deductible expense tax treated?
If you cancel the deductibility option when recording the expense, Fawtar includes its tax in the project cost and does not place it within deductible input tax.
