The work, from first enquiry to final invoice

Built for the way a sign job moves.

Start wherever the pressure is greatest. The useful part is that sales, artwork, production, purchasing, field work, costs and reporting do not become separate stories.

01 · Product area

Jobs & production

Keep the scope, client, people, tasks, dates, files, costs and decisions close enough that the next person can pick up the work without a handover meeting.

02 · Product area

Leads & clients

Capture the enquiry, contact, owner and next action before anyone starts quoting. When the work is won, the client history stays with it.

03 · Product area

Estimating & quoting

Build structured quotes, import the working detail from a compatible pricing workbook, keep revisions, record issue and acceptance, and hand the agreed scope into the job without flattening it.

04 · Product area

Email & job filing

Incoming job mail can be checked, classified and attached to the right work. Permits, artwork and purchase orders land where the team expects to find them.

05 · Product area

Artwork versions & approvals

Give clients a focused browser review for the current proof while preserving every earlier version, request and approval on the job.

06 · Product area

Production scheduling

Plan job tasks against people, teams and available hours—or ask Fitch to prepare a review-only week from incomplete work, existing bookings, staff capability and available timesheet history.

07 · Product area

Purchasing & suppliers

Raise purchase orders against jobs, track supplier commitments and record receipts without losing the authorisation or cost trail.

08 · Product area

Time & labour

Staff record time against the job and task they worked on. Managers can review the team week, spot gaps and compare actual effort with the estimate.

09 · Product area

Invoicing & job financials

Follow invoices from draft to paid, then read revenue beside labour, purchases and accepted scope when you need the real job result.

10 · Product area

Move approved customer invoices, receipted supplier bills and payroll-ready timesheets from the operational record into Xero. Bring payment status back so accounts and the people running the job see the same position.

11 · Product area

Reporting

Open proven production, financial and exception views, or describe the report you need. SignBas3 shows the recipe, checks the records and supports multi-page reports and PDF export.

12 · Product area

Fitch

Fitch works inside SignBas3 with the same access boundaries as the person asking. It can investigate, prepare reports and build a review-only weekly schedule; important changes still wait for approval.
