FOR COST ACCOUNTANTS
Manage cost audits and CRA compliance without the chaos
One platform to run CRA-2 appointments, CRA-3 audit reports, time and WIP tracking, client records, and a deadline risk radar — so your cost audit practice runs on process, not memory.
What slows you down today
- Tracking billable hours for cost audit engagements in Excel — then losing time reconciling timesheets against the final report.
- No standardized checklist for CRA-1 maintenance, CRA-2 approvals, and CRA-3 cost sheets, so junior staff miss critical cost heads.
- Cost audit documents (cost records, annexures, reconciliation sheets) spread across email and local drives with no version history.
- No early warning when a CRA filing is falling behind — engagements slip past due dates before anyone notices.
Everything you need, in one place
Cost Audit (CRA) Compliance
Structured task templates for CRA-1 record maintenance, CRA-2 auditor appointment, CRA-3 report drafting, and CRA-4 XBRL filing. Nothing falls through.
Time & WIP Tracking
Start/pause timers per client and engagement. Accumulated billable hours convert to live WIP value — so you always know what's earned but not yet billed.
Client Management
Central client register with industry, applicable cost audit threshold, factory details, and contact records. Filter by sector or audit status instantly.
Costing Records & Document Vault
Secure folder per client for cost sheets, reconciliation statements, and working papers. Versioned uploads with role-based access for junior and senior staff.
Deadline Risk Radar
Every CRA engagement x due date scored red/amber/green based on progress, workload, and history — catch what's falling behind before it's late.
Practice & Utilization Reports
Engagement-wise cost vs. staff utilization rates. Identify underperforming engagements before deadlines close in.
Built around how you actually work
- CRA-1 to CRA-4 checklists ensure no cost head or annexure is missed
- Live WIP shows billable value accumulated per client at any point
- Staff utilization reports show billable vs. non-billable hours per person
- Deadline Risk Radar flags at-risk CRA filings before they're late
