Can I manage multiple job sites for the same client?

Yes. A single client in BetterDesks can have multiple job sites, each with its own schedule, attendance tracking, and timesheet records.

Yes. In BetterDesks, a single client record can contain multiple job sites. Each site operates independently with its own schedule, attendance configuration, and timesheet data, while still being linked to the parent client.

Detailed answer

Large clients often have multiple buildings, floors, departments, or physical locations. A hospital group might have a main campus, a satellite clinic, and an administrative building. A retail chain might have ten store locations under one contract.

BetterDesks handles this by letting you add as many job sites as needed under a single client. Each site can have its own shift templates, attendance rules, and manager access. When you need to view data for the whole client, you can roll up records across all their sites. When you need to drill into a specific building, you can filter down to that site alone.

This structure also makes billing and payroll reporting cleaner. If you invoice clients by site, or need to separate hours worked at different locations, BetterDesks keeps those records distinct from the start rather than requiring you to split them out later.

Example

A security company has a contract with a large university. The university has a main gate, a residence building, an event venue, and a parking facility — all requiring different staffing levels at different times. Each location is added as a separate job site under the university client in BetterDesks. Guards are scheduled to the correct site, their clock-ins are tied to that location, and timesheets are separated by site for accurate billing.

How BetterDesks helps

BetterDesks gives you a flexible client and site hierarchy so your account structure mirrors the way your contracts and operations are actually organised. Managing one client with five locations is no more complicated than managing five separate clients.
