Workflow

One pipeline, from proposal to reported income.

Every deal in FlowBook moves through the same seven stages, so nothing gets billed twice and nothing gets forgotten between sales and accounting.

Nothing sold goes unbilled

Every approved proposal is one click away from becoming an invoice.

Bottlenecks stay visible

Pending proposals and unpaid invoices are visible to the whole team, not buried in someone's inbox.

Books that close themselves

By the time an invoice is paid, the accounting entry already exists.
