How WorkGuru makes managing variations simple
Group project variations for better reporting
Need to quote variations separately but still track them under one project?
Project Groups let you add new quotes for each variation while keeping everything linked for seamless reporting. Once approved, project variations are automatically organised under the original project, giving you complete visibility.
If you’re just making minor tweaks to an ongoing project, skip the hassle of creating a new quote. Edit the existing project, add the new line items, and WorkGuru updates your forecast and invoicing—without affecting the original estimate.
Generate a simple variation form, include the scope, cost, and client signature, and get instant approval. This will save you hours of admin time and prevent costly disputes later.
"The customisation features and easy-to-access customer support have been the best parts of working with WorkGuru. Its ease of use and simplicity in tracking and managing accounts payable and invoicing are user-friendly."
