Save time, every week
From scheduling to payroll, without manual handovers, phone calls, or spreadsheets. Less admin means more time for what actually matters: running your business.
Planning
From WhatsApp roster to digital schedule
- Schedules 01
Build clear weekly schedules for your permanent team. Employees see their shifts, hours, and location in real time via the Staff app. Leave requests are managed in the same view.
- Availabilities 02
Flex workers and students submit their availability via the Staff app. You see it instantly in the Portal. Need someone last-minute? Send a targeted shift invitation and the first to respond gets the shift. No more calling around.
- Labour cost management 03
Plan smarter by seeing the hourly cost of each employee while you schedule. Optimise staffing levels before the shift starts, not after the payslip arrives.
Time registration
From time clock to social secretariat, in a few clicks
- Digital time clock 01
Install the bookU Timer app on a tablet or smartphone. Employees clock in and out by code. Hours register live in your bookU Portal. Available in the App Store and Google Play, no expensive hardware needed.
- Leave & absence management 02
Employees request leave or report sick directly via the Staff app. You approve or decline in your bookU Portal. Balances for leave, illness, and other absences update automatically, always an accurate overview for your permanent team.
- Performance processing 03
Validated hours, processed with the correct performance codes, absence codes, overtime settings, and encoding rules — are sent to your social secretariat in one click. Payroll runs clean. The “we’ll fix it on the next payslip” conversation stops happening.
Administration
Compliant without thinking about it
- Employee management 01
All employee data in one place. Manage profiles, and keep everything up to date, without switching between systems. Thanks to direct integrations with your payroll partner, employee data syncs automatically — enter it once in bookU, and it’s available at everywhere.
- Contracts 02
bookU generates the right contract type automatically for your flex-worker or student. They sign digitally when they clock in via the Timer app. No more paperwork, and never a student or flexi-worker at work without a signed contract.
- Dimona declarations 03
Filed automatically to the RSZ when a student or flex worker clocks in via the bookU Timer app, or when a shift is planned. If someone works longer than scheduled, the Dimona is adjusted in real time. No more missed declarations, no more corrections after the fact.
Why you should start
