Professional services and time billing

Run a consultancy or agency on its time: record and round time, bill it at rate cards, value unbilled WIP, and report utilisation and realisation.

56 capabilities (28 core, 28 optional) and 12 gaps, in build order. Put each line in the file that calls it, then fune build.

Calculates tax from published rules; it is not tax advice. Have an accountant check how the app uses it before anyone files a return.

Gaps

What this kind of app usually needs that Functional Weave does not have yet: write these yourself, or use a service.

  • projects-and-budgets Projects, tasks and budgets (fixed fee or time and materials) and burn against them.
  • fx-rate-source Where exchange rates come from: money.convert takes a rate you supply; fetching and storing daily rates (ECB, a provider's API) is yours.
  • money-storage Storing amounts: the database columns (integer minor units plus a currency code) and their migrations are yours.
  • time-zones Time zones and daylight saving: caps works in ISO dates, UTC and wall-clock times; converting with the IANA tz rules is yours.
  • locale-formatting Showing dates in a user's language and format ("3 octobre 2026"): caps returns ISO dates, not localised text.
  • non-uk-holidays Public holidays outside the UK: dates.bank-holidays is UK only; pass another country's list to the working-day functions yourself.
  • mtd-submission Making Tax Digital: submitting the return to HMRC's VAT API (OAuth, fraud-prevention headers, obligations) is yours; caps gives the nine boxes.
  • corporation-tax Corporation tax and self-assessment income tax computations are not in caps.
  • vat-number-lookup Checking that a VAT number is registered (HMRC's lookup API) is network work; caps checks the checksum only.
