Professional Services Cloud: engagements billed the right way, every time.
A real, client-linked consulting engagement with a real billing type — fixed fee, time & materials, or retainer — tracked from proposed through active to completed, plus invoice-gated billing milestones: no milestone gets marked paid until it's actually been invoiced.

Hardcoded Industry Logic
"Was that milestone actually invoiced" shouldn't be a guess.
A consulting firm needs two real answers a generic project tracker can't give: what billing model this engagement actually runs on, and whether a milestone has really been invoiced before anyone marks it paid.
From proposed to paid, billed correctly
Every engagement carries a real billing type; every milestone is invoice-gated before it can be paid.
Propose the engagement
Client, name, and billing type — fixed fee, time & materials, or retainer, a real distinction from day one.
Move it to active
Proposed through active — a real, queryable status your whole team can see.
Set a billing milestone
A title, amount, and due date — a real record per engagement.
Invoice, then pay
A milestone can only move to paid once it's actually been invoiced — no skipping the gate.
Where this shows up in your day
Managing Consultants
Need to see every engagement's real status and billing type.
A real, queryable pipeline, not a spreadsheet.
Consultants
Need to know exactly how this engagement bills — fixed fee or T&M.
A real billing type on every engagement, no ambiguity.
Finance Teams
Need proof a milestone was invoiced before it's marked paid.
A real, timestamped invoice-then-pay gate, enforced server-side.
Analysts
Track billing milestones across multiple client engagements.
Milestones scoped correctly per engagement, never mixed up.
One engagement, billed correctly end to end
A fixed-fee engagement is proposed for a client, then moves to Active once the SOW is signed.
A Phase 1 Delivery milestone is set for $15,000, due at the end of the month.
The milestone is marked Invoiced — a real, timestamped record.
Payment comes in; the milestone moves to Paid — impossible to skip the invoice step.
The engagement wraps up and moves to Completed — a real, final status.
Part of one platform, not a bolt-on
CRM
Engagements attach to the same Client record used for invoicing and communication across the platform.

The underlying delivery work still runs through the same Projects module every FlashCat.ai organization already uses.

Enable Engagements and Engagement Milestones independently — Milestones depends on Engagements already being enabled.
