Ask HN: SMB employees management, invoicing and accounting, one-stop shop?

1 pointsby whiteabout 12 years ago
A friend of mine runs a small shop, where he and couple of his employees/contractors do the job.<p>He lands a client, gets himself on retainer or on hourly rate, sends invoices out every month, tracks invoices as paid or non-paid, manages his bank account and distributions - essentially he needs to have a good understanding of P&#38;L at any given time, as while he does some work himself, sometimes he hires other people to sub-contract to.<p>Essentially he needs a tool to manage his hourly and retainer-based employees, who can track their time at their rate, as well as to pass-through these timesheets to his client, billed at a different rate.<p>Also, he manages distributions, as some of his partners get royalty share, etc.<p>Currently he uses spreadsheets to track all that and I should tell - that's quite a mess. He doesn't want to get engaged with more complicated solutions, and he doesn't have accountant for anything but his taxes, at the end of the year.<p>Is there any one-stop shop that you are using and can recommend? Really appreciate your hints.
