Efficient management of office hours and availability

IdS OfficeHoursManager

Define and manage employees' working hours, location, and availability. Standard working hours can be inherited from office location or customized individually. OfficeHoursManager integrates with booking systems for automatic meeting booking, providing better overview of availability and easier booking for all parties.

Standard office hours from office location

Employees automatically get standard office hours from their office location. Change office hours on the location, and it applies to everyone who inherits it – consistent and easy to maintain.

Central control with controlled delegation

Manage common office hours centrally, while managers can have limited responsibility where it makes sense. Fewer bottlenecks and better compliance.

Exceptions per employee – without chaos

Override office hours for individuals when needed (e.g., hybrid/shift work). The solution supports clear rules and validation so office hours don't become inconsistent across locations.

Synchronization to external systems

Expose office hours (and office locations) to external systems via system connections, so correct availability is shown where it's actually used.

Better security, quality, and traceability

Audit-proof history and clear connection between location–office hours–user makes it easier to comply with routines and ensure data quality.

Insight and reporting per location

Get quick overview by filtering/grouping on location and office hours. Useful for IT and Facility when standardizing practices and planning operations across locations.

Use cases

OfficeHoursManager provides value across the organization – from IT and Facility to managers and employees.
