so what does it do?

billwerx script features:

Billwerx is a PHP and MySQL script that uses similar technologies to a previously written script called iCDBILL. Billwerx was written as iCDBILL was getting old and the security updates, new features and functions could not be added to the existing iCDBILL framework.

Billwerx was designed as a lightweight CRM with integrated invoicing / billing functions. As time grows the basic function of Billwerx is to keep track of suppliers, clients, and invoices while providing a management with the tools like profit to cost summaries, campaign leads, employee performace history, and integrated client survey reporting. In a nutshell, Billwerx allows clients to login to a online self management portal and download, print, and pay invoices created by employees.

what does it not do?

what billwerx will not replace:

Billwerx is not an accounting system. The core functions of Billwerx offer customizable tax values, simplistic contractor or employee payroll, warranty claim tracking, and both invoice as well as tax remittance reports. You'll need an accounting system to do the rest. It's important to note that Billwerx was written in Canada - altough the scripts provides a wide range of flexibility further customization may be needed for it to operate within your countries business rules.
