What each role can see and do, rewritten

Roles on both sides of an engagement, and the reach each one has.

Prilet has two sides and several roles on each, and until now what a given person could see was a set of rules written one screen at a time. That is the kind of thing that quietly drifts.

Access now follows the work rather than the job title. A manager sees the projects and people they actually run; committing the company — signing agreements, deciding who you do business with — is an administrator's.

A new timekeeper role records hours without seeing what they cost, for the people who should be filling in a week and nothing else.

🔐

You grant financial visibility separately from team management, so you can hand someone a team to run and decide about margins on its own terms.

Your hours now arrive filled in, day by day

A billing week used to be a single number, and that number was the only thing you could argue with. If the week added up but the days inside it did not, there was no way to say so. Your hours now arrive filled in, day by day A billing

Expenses bill on their own cycle, and say what they cover

Expenses do not arrive on the same rhythm as hours. A flight booked in August might not be routed for billing until September, and until now the invoice would go out the moment it was mapped — landing on a client mid-month, out of step with everything else they receive

A subcontractor can have an address inside your world

A subcontractor is a company you pay, and a company you pay needs an address — on the invoice, in the remittance, in your books. Until now that address had to live somewhere else. Subcontractors sign in to Prilet as themselves, but most of them hold an address on your domain
