Spend-to-date is the least useful budget number in project management. What a sponsor needs is the forecast at completion and the variance against plan, and that requires the committed-but-not-yet-invoiced work to be visible.

Holding cost lines, SOWs and invoices in the same workbook is what makes that possible: the commitment exists on the SOW register before it ever appears as an invoice.

Who it is for

IT project and programme managers accountable for a project budget with external suppliers.

Questions

Does it replace the finance system?

No, and it should not try to. It is the project view — finance remains the record of truth for actuals.

Can it handle capex and opex split?

Cost lines carry a category field you can use for that, or for any other split your organisation reports on.
