The problem
Most contracting back-office work — time, expenses, holidays, customer accounts — is repetitive enough to disappear. PaperDrop's People & Productivity tools handle the admin so your team can stay on site.
Employees request days off from the app, managers approve in one tap, the calendar updates everywhere. No more pencil amendments on the office wall planner.

Log business trips and vehicle use with a few quick inputs. Job mileage flows straight into the job's Financial Overview as expenditure. Approve, pay, done.

Upload a receipt photo, pick a category, allocate to a job or an internal cost code. Submitted for approval before the engineer's back at the office.

A weekly timesheet workflow built for contractors on the tools. Book time against jobs or ad-hoc tasks, submit, manager approves, payroll picks it up.

Add new people in seconds. Set their role, working hours, approval rules and notification preferences. Managers see their team; finance sees everything.

Add custom fields to Customers, Suppliers, Jobs, Assets and Purchases — capture certificate IDs, contract refs, anything. Build custom grid views with just the columns you care about.

Allocate a credit limit to each customer and get warned automatically when they're approaching or over. Stop bad debt before the next job starts.

“PaperDrop helps people feel safe after stressful events.”
