Hours, work orders and purchase invoices are recorded at the source and flow to the project automatically. The moment to switch: as soon as you run several projects at once, with several employees per project, and you want to know each month what your work in progress is worth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center has-ast-global-color-1-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-offset-left\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/bluace-projectadministratie-software-excel.jpg\" alt=\"Projectadministratie software: in Excel of in software?\" class=\"wp-image-21244\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/bluace-projectadministratie-software-excel.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/bluace-projectadministratie-software-excel-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/bluace-projectadministratie-software-excel-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide are-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-62313de3 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center has-ast-global-color-0-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-offset-right\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/bluace-projectadministratie-software-microsoft-dynamics-365-business-central.jpg\" alt=\"Projectadministratie software: Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central\" class=\"wp-image-21237\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/bluace-projectadministratie-software-microsoft-dynamics-365-business-central.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/bluace-projectadministratie-software-microsoft-dynamics-365-business-central-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/bluace-projectadministratie-software-microsoft-dynamics-365-business-central-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 id=\"h-project-administration-software-in-microsoft-dynamics-365-business-central\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:28px;font-style:normal;font-weight:600\"><strong><strong>Project administration software in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bluace sets up the project administration within <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/dynamics-365\/products\/business-central?market=nl\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/dynamics-365\/products\/business-central?market=nl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central<\/a>, the ERP platform that also runs your financial administration, purchasing and inventory.

Projects and service work run side by side: the same engineer works on an installation project in the morning and resolves a breakdown in the afternoon. Materials come from the van, the warehouse or straight from the wholesaler. And variations arise on site, not at a desk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is why a watertight project administration in this industry starts at the work order: if the engineer records hours and materials on the right order, the administration completes itself.

Project administration organises those same facts per project, supplemented with operational data such as hours and material usage, aimed at steering: is this project within budget? In an ERP system such as Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central both administrations are one and the same, so the project result always reconciles with the financial administration.<\/div>\n  <\/details>\n  <details style=\"background:#ffffff;border:1px solid #e1e8ef;border-radius:8px;overflow:hidden\">\n    <summary style=\"cursor:pointer;padding:18px 24px;font-size:17px;font-weight:600;color:#063055;display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;gap:16px;list-style:none\">\n      <span>Can I keep my project administration in Excel?<\/span>\n      <span aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"font-size:24px;font-weight:400;line-height:1;color:#063055;flex-shrink:0\">+<\/span>\n    <\/summary>\n    <div style=\"padding:0 24px 22px 24px;font-size:15px;color:#3d4754;line-height:1.65\">For a small number of simultaneous projects, yes. Excel becomes risky as soon as several employees book hours on projects, variations occur regularly and you need a reliable work in progress position every month. Every figure then has to be retyped from time sheets, work orders and purchase invoices, resulting in outdated and error-prone numbers. Project administration software records the same data at the source and keeps the project result up to date automatically.<\/div>\n  <\/details>\n  <details style=\"background:#ffffff;border:1px solid #e1e8ef;border-radius:8px;overflow:hidden\">\n    <summary style=\"cursor:pointer;padding:18px 24px;font-size:17px;font-weight:600;color:#063055;display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;gap:16px;list-style:none\">\n      <span>What is work in progress (WIP)?<\/span>\n      <span aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"font-size:24px;font-weight:400;line-height:1;color:#063055;flex-shrink:0\">+<\/span>\n    <\/summary>\n    <div style=\"padding:0 24px 22px 24px;font-size:15px;color:#3d4754;line-height:1.65\">Work in progress is the value of work that has been performed but not yet invoiced: hours booked, materials used and costs incurred that are still waiting for an instalment or final invoice. For project companies WIP is often the largest unknown on the balance sheet. Business Central calculates the WIP position per project automatically and posts it to the general ledger using the method you choose.<\/div>\n  <\/details>\n  <details style=\"background:#ffffff;border:1px solid #e1e8ef;border-radius:8px;overflow:hidden\">\n    <summary style=\"cursor:pointer;padding:18px 24px;font-size:17px;font-weight:600;color:#063055;display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;gap:16px;list-style:none\">\n      <span>Which software is suitable for project administration?<\/span>\n      <span aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"font-size:24px;font-weight:400;line-height:1;color:#063055;flex-shrink:0\">+<\/span>\n    <\/summary>\n    <div style=\"padding:0 24px 22px 24px;font-size:15px;color:#3d4754;line-height:1.65\">That depends on how the rest of your company runs. Stand-alone project administration packages record projects well, but require integrations or manual work towards bookkeeping, purchasing and time registration. For companies that also manage inventory, purchasing and field service, such as installation and service companies, an ERP platform with an integrated projects module makes more sense. Bluace implements Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central for this, including the digital work order, so the project administration largely fills itself.<\/div>\n  <\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull is-style-default halfway-background has-ast-global-color-2-background-color has-background is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-e351fa6c wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"padding-right:0;padding-left:0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide is-style-shadow is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide has-ast-global-color-2-background-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-461897f4 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-stretch is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h4 id=\"h-want-to-automate-your-project-administration-in-business-central\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);font-size:28px;font-style:normal;font-weight:600\"><strong><strong>Want to automate your project administration in Business Central?<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our sales team is happy to help!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-vertical is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-3fc47171 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<p class=\"has-ast-global-color-0-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-right:0;margin-bottom:0;margin-left:0vw;font-size:16px;font-style:normal;font-weight:400\"><strong>Shiwan Roepa<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-right:0;margin-bottom:0;margin-left:0vw;font-size:16px;font-style:normal;font-weight:400\">+31858200802<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-right:0;margin-bottom:0;margin-left:0vw;font-size:16px;font-style:normal;font-weight:400\">info@bluace.nl<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-4de74d12 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-ast-global-color-2-color has-ast-global-color-4-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bluace.nl\/en\/contact\/\">Contact us<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-ast-global-color-2-color has-ast-global-color-4-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bluace.nl\/en\/demo\/\">Request a demo<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-top is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/bluace-sales-team-shiwan.jpg\" alt=\"Shiwan Roepa, sales bij Bluace\" class=\"wp-image-15772\" style=\"width:300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/bluace-sales-team-shiwan.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/bluace-sales-team-shiwan-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/bluace-sales-team-shiwan-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/bluace-sales-team-shiwan-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/bluace-sales-team-shiwan-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/bluace.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/bluace-sales-team-shiwan-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You win projects at the front end, but you earn them at the back end.
