### Managing tasks

Project can be divided into multiple Tasks.
|
|
Task can be created via Project document itself or can be created via [Task](/docs/user/manual/en/projects/tasks.html)

### Managing time
|
|
|
|
ERPNext uses [Time Log](/docs/user/manual/en/projects/time-log.html) to track the progress of a Project.
|
|
You can create Time Logs against each task.
|
|
The Actual Start and End Time along with the costing shall then be updated based on the Time Log.
|
|
|
|
* To view Time Log made against a Project click on 'Time Logs'

|
|
|

### Managing expenses
|
|
|
|
You can book [Expense Claim](/docs/user/manual/en/human-resources/expense-claim.html) against a project task.
|
|
The system shall update the total amount from expense claims in the project costing section.
|
|
|
|
* To view Expense Claims made against a Project click on 'Expense Claims'
|
|

|
|

|
### Cost Center
|
|
|
|
You can make a [Cost Center](/docs/user/manual/en/accounts/setup/cost-center.html) against a Project or use an existing cost center to track all expenses made against that project.
|
|
|
|
<img class="screenshot" alt="Project - Cost Center" src="{{docs_base_url}}/assets/img/project/project_cost_center.png">

###Project Costing
|
|
|
|
The Project Costing section helps you track the time, expenses and purchases incurred against the project.
|
|
|
|
<img class="screenshot" alt="Project - Costing" src="{{docs_base_url}}/assets/img/project/project_costing.png">
|
|
|
|
* The Total Cost is composed of the costing amount from timesheets, the total cost from expense claims and the total cost from purchase invoices created against this project.
|
|
|
|
* The Gross Margin is the difference between Total Billed Amount and the Total Cost Amount for this project.
|
|
|
|
###Billing
|
|
|
|
You can make/link a [Sales Order](/docs/user/manual/en/selling/sales-order.html) against a project. Once linked you can use the standard sales module to bill your customer against the Project.
