CorelentraBooks
Manage subcontractor agreements, custom labor payout rates, digital contract signing, and project payout ledgers in a white-labeled contractor portal.
Manage field labor force compliance with precision. Assign subcontractors with custom payout rates tied directly to specific client invoices, mandate digital contract signatures before job assignment, and track payout ledgers in real time.
Dedicated Subcontractor Dashboard where field crews review job specs, sign binding agreements, and track payouts
Managing subcontractor costs across multiple job sites can be a bookkeeping nightmare. Corelentra Books resolves this by introducing Invoice-Specific Subcontractor Rates (admin/books_subcontractor_rates.php).
General contractors can configure tiered labor payout rates based on project scopes:
Define payout rates per linear foot (e.g., $8.50/lf for wood privacy, $12.00/lf for aluminum), post hole, or gate installation linked to the client's invoice line items.
Set fixed contract payouts or hourly labor rates for custom tear-outs, site clearing, or specialized construction scopes.
Protect your general contracting business from liability, insurance audits, and scope disputes. In Corelentra Books, subcontractors have their own dedicated login portal (portal/subcontractor_dashboard.php).
Subcontractors must review and digitally sign the legally binding project contract online BEFORE the system allows them to be assigned to the job or dispatched to the site. The portal records the subcontractor's e-signature, IP address, agreement timestamp, and rate sheet, locking in contractual obligations before work begins.
The Subcontractor Portal gives your installation crews and trade partners everything they need to execute jobs flawlessly while keeping your internal financial data confidential:
Digitizing subcontractor contracts and labor rates directly inside your double-entry accounting ledger protects your job costing accuracy. By locking in labor rates prior to assignment, you prevent unexpected labor cost overruns and maintain predictable profit margins. Digital contract signatures ensure full legal and worker’s compensation audit compliance. Real-time payout ledgers eliminate manual paycheck disputes, establishing strong relationships with quality subcontractors and giving your business the operational leverage to handle multiple large-scale commercial projects simultaneously.
