ArchiAdmin is the Australian GST
solution for contract administration and fees and receipts.
GST compliance requires specific method of calculation and presentation of the GST
and also requires certain records to be maintained.

ArchiAdmin manages the new Microsoft applications
including Word, Excel and Microsoft Project and organizes your
information into projects, jobs or matters, while providing a wealth of
convenient enhanced functionality. The program incorporates time costing
quality assurance and monitoring, both within the projects and within
your office.
Letter proformas are also conveniently
available through the system enabling fast document creation. The
fundamental concept is to operate a project, matter or job without
the need for paper. To achieve this it does a number of things:
|
|
|
|
Operates the computer in files or jobs rather
than Word processing, spreadsheet programs etc.
|
|
|
Structures the work-flow in tasks that you
would perform in those files.
|
|
|
Offers filing and retrieval and backup
capabilities far superior to the paper system.
|
|
|
Offers an audit trail of document issue,
receipt, filing etc. which is logical and identifiable by another person.

The time cost module
provides a comprehensive project costing module for costing and
monitoring of projects, time analysis, reconciliation of outside
consultants' payments and invoicing. The software incorporates many
innovations including the following significant features: |
|
|
The software is written to the requirements of construction professionals
which interfaces (exports and imports data) from the leading accounting
systems in the market, i.e. MYOB, Attache, Pastell. Generic time sheeting
programs do not handle the greater diversity of staff types, size of
projects and segregation of separable parts of work required by the large
projects and numbers of staff in a construction professional's offices.
|
|
|
The time cost module enables the production
staff to monitor their own financial performance "on the fly". This is
achieved by having specific monitors available on the time sheet screen.
|
|
|
Forward cash flow recognition. The program enables
cash flow projections to unlimited time. The budgets can be calculated
from gross fees and projections resource balanced within and between
cost centers at each accounting period.
|
|
|
Budget Reporting forms the basis of the financial performance
monitoring and provides calculations of work completed against the budgets. This reporting is done by project, cost center and firm wide.
|
|
|
The system can operate in cost centres and
enables timesheets, projects and budgets to be allocated to cost
centres and reported by cost centre as well as cross charging between
cost centres where staff are paid wages in one cost centre and work in
another.
|
|
|
The software can be made available in a range of
database sizes and either single or multi-user versions with
comprehensive range of templates and modules. |

ArchiAdmin features offer the potential for an office to be more organised and to save time either by virtue of time in motion review of your workflow or by virtue of having key management
information at your fingertips which will enable you to
better manage time.
|
|
|
As our financial model indicates, management and saving of
time is absolutely critical to the financial performance of a
time fee based office.
|
|
ArchiAdmin is specifically designed to address
these vital areas of concern for a time fee based office particularly
which works in job files and generates large numbers of documents or
correspondences.
