Frequently asked questions

What is a WIP report in construction?

A WIP (Work-in-Progress) report shows the financial status of all active construction projects at a point in time. For each job, it calculates the percentage of completion (using the cost-to-cost method), earned revenue, and whether you've overbilled or underbilled. Sureties require it for bonding, banks need it for lending, and CPAs use it for GAAP-compliant financial statements.

How does WIPReports connect to QuickBooks Online?

WIPReports uses Intuit's official OAuth 2.0 integration. You click "Connect QuickBooks" on your dashboard, log into your QBO account, and authorize read-only access to your accounting data. Your projects, costs, and billings sync automatically every day. You can disconnect at any time from your dashboard or from QBO's app management.

Do my project managers need accounts to submit estimates?

No. PMs receive a magic-link email each month. They click the link, see their assigned projects with pre-filled cost-to-complete estimates (based on budget or prior period), confirm or adjust the numbers, and click Submit. No login, no password, no account creation required. The whole process takes about 5 minutes.

How long does it take to set up WIPReports?

About 15 minutes. Sign up, connect QuickBooks (one click), enter contract amounts for your active jobs, add your PM contacts, and set your distribution list (CPA, surety, bank). After initial setup, your WIP reports generate automatically every month.

Can my CPA and surety receive the WIP automatically?

Yes. Add your CPA, surety company, and bank to your distribution list. When you approve the WIP schedule, the PDF is emailed to all recipients automatically. You can set who receives drafts vs. finals.

How is WIPReports different from Knowify?

Knowify is a full construction project management platform that includes WIP reporting at $249/month. WIPReports does one thing: WIP reports. It starts at $49/month and doesn't require you to adopt a new PM workflow. If you just need automated WIP schedules on top of QuickBooks, WIPReports is the focused, affordable solution.

Does WIPReports work with QuickBooks Desktop?

Currently, WIPReports works with QuickBooks Online only (Plus, Advanced, or Enterprise Suite). QuickBooks Desktop is being phased out by Intuit. If you're planning to migrate to QBO, WIPReports will be ready for you.

Is my QuickBooks data secure?

Yes. WIPReports uses Intuit's official OAuth 2.0 integration with read-only access. Your QBO credentials are never stored. OAuth tokens are encrypted at rest. All connections use HTTPS. Passwords are hashed with bcrypt. We've passed Intuit's security compliance review.

What if my PM doesn't submit their estimates?

WIPReports automatically sends reminder emails on Day 3 (gentle nudge) and Day 5 (urgent: "your estimates are blocking the WIP report"). You can also send manual reminders from the dashboard. The estimates page shows you exactly who hasn't submitted yet.

Can I try WIPReports for free?

Yes. Your first month is completely free with no credit card required. Sign up, connect QuickBooks, and generate your first WIP schedule in minutes. If it saves you time, keep it. If not, no charge.
