The problem

Revenue slips away between the job and the invoice.

When operations are disconnected, details get lost somewhere between finishing the work and raising the invoice.

  • Delivery details that never reach the invoice

  • Work that is done but never billed

  • Invoices that go out late

  • Disputes over what was agreed

  • Reconciliation that takes too long

  • Little visibility across the financial workflow

The core idea

Bill what you actually delivered.

Delivered quantityInvoiced quantityBillable

Cortex Ledger connects what has been delivered with what has already been invoiced, so there is a clearer path from finished work to revenue.

The workflow

One path from quote to ledger.

  1. 01

    Quote

    Price the work with quotes and estimates.

  2. 02

    Order

    Confirm it as a sales order.

  3. 03

    Delivery

    Track what has been delivered.

  4. 04

    Invoice

    Invoice with approvals built in.

  5. 05

    Payment

    Record receipts and payments.

  6. 06

    Ledger

    Flow through to accounting and financial management.

Each stage carries its details forward, so what was quoted, delivered and invoiced stays linked instead of being re-entered at every step.

Built for Australian businesses

Designed around Australian financial workflows.

Cortex Ledger is made for Australian service businesses rather than adapted from a generic global template. GST reporting and Australian financial workflows are part of how the system is designed, not something added at the end.

Built for how the work actually runs.
