Choose the right timesheet mode for your organization.
What is Office 1 Solution?
Office 1 Solution is a single, unified cloud-native workforce management platform built on Microsoft Azure. During initial setup, you choose between two timesheet modes based on how your organization tracks time.
Important: Both models include the complete platform — all core features are identical. Only timesheet creation and management differ.
The Two Timesheet Modes
Full-Time Timesheet Mode
For organizations with salaried employees who manually log hours, often tracking time by project or client.
Scheduling Timesheet Mode
For shift-based employees who clock in/out for assigned shifts. Timesheets are automatically generated from attendance records.
