Timekeeping with explicit assignments and accountable review

Strike Timesheet is built for government contractors. Core timekeeping is free. Optional advanced compliance and notification features may be offered separately.

Everyday timekeeping

Record the work you did, against the work your organization has made available.

  • Project-based time entry

    Find the right project and charge code before recording your hours.

    Employees choose from available, assigned project charge codes and enter hours by work date. Project names and task labels help distinguish similar codes; project availability dates and configured timesheet policies still apply.

  • Autosaved drafts

    Keep working without a separate save step for every edit.

    Valid draft changes save automatically, with visible saving and error states. Employees can review their entries before the separate submission step; saving a draft does not submit or approve it.

  • Pay-period timesheets & past records

    Work within your company’s configured periods and revisit earlier timesheets.

    Employees move between configured pay periods and see the status of each saved sheet. Preserved past weekly timesheets remain separately labeled, rather than being presented as configured pay periods.

  • Mobile daily entry

    Enter today’s hours from your phone without maintaining a second timesheet.

    The mobile daily view opens one work date from the same saved pay-period timesheet used on desktop. Employees use the same assigned charge options, work timezone, policy checks and submission workflow.

  • Indirect work & leave

    Keep non-project work and time off alongside project hours.

    Administrators configure indirect-work and leave categories, such as overhead, paid time off or holidays, and assign them to people. Employees record time only to categories made available to them; a suggested category is not permission to charge it.

  • Daily totals & schedule guidance

    See your totals and catch missing or out-of-policy entries before submitting.

    Employees can compare recorded hours with configured workday expectations and see guidance for required days, daily limits and future-entry restrictions. Work dates use the employee’s saved timezone; totals describe recorded time, not verified attendance.

Reviews & corrections

Make submission, review and later changes understandable to everyone involved.

  • Submission & status tracking

    Know whether a timesheet is a draft, submitted, returned or approved.

    Employees review their hours and explicitly submit a timesheet to their assigned reviewer. Status and returned-sheet guidance stay with the saved sheet, so an autosaved edit is not mistaken for a completed review.

  • Approval & reasoned returns

    Give reviewers the entries and context needed to make a clear decision.

    Eligible assigned reviewers inspect timesheets, approve them or return them with a required reason. The review overview shows configured-period status, while preserved weekly records remain a separate workflow.

  • Corrections & recorded history

    Explain changes without replacing the original review evidence.

    Employees give a reason when revising returned sheets or requesting changes to submitted or approved time. Reviewers decide correction requests, and retained change and decision records preserve available before-and-after values, reasons and timestamps. This is not a claim of immutable storage or a guaranteed retention period.

Projects & charge codes

Keep organization-managed work distinct from the public records used as references.

  • Project directory & manual setup

    Give the team a shared view of the work your organization manages.

    Organization members can browse the project directory and read project details. Administrators can create manual projects, set recognizable names and internal codes, and maintain customer and contract-reference information.

  • Charge codes & availability dates

    Control which project work can appear on employee timesheets.

    Administrators define a project’s individual charge codes, time-entry availability and applicable dates. A project needs completed setup and saved employee assignments before its codes are available for charging; finding a project does not grant access to charge it.

  • Optional federal record discovery

    Use federal registrations and award references to help set up projects.

    During setup, administrators can review a government registration association and discover related public award records. Selected awards become editable organization project drafts while official-source identity details stay distinct. Discovery does not establish chargeability, verify entitlement to bill, or automatically synchronize project settings.

Team setup & administration

Set up people, work and review responsibilities without giving everyone administrator controls.

  • Guided organization setup

    Work through company setup in a clear, resumable sequence.

    Administrators review company identity, projects, time categories, people, assignments and approvers before opening timekeeping. Saved progress lets them resume setup, and federal award discovery is optional rather than a requirement for creating manual work.

  • People, invitations & organization joining

    Bring people into the right organization with explicit access controls.

    Members can view their organization’s People directory. Administrators manage organization-local details and roles, send email invitations, and manage joining through access codes, verified-domain settings and access requests. A pending access request is not an invitation or approved membership.

  • Per-person work assignments

    Show each employee the work they are authorized to charge.

    Administrators assign available project charge codes and non-project categories to individual members. Assignments can differ by person, and removing or retiring work stops new charges without relabeling previously saved time.

  • Named approvers & review routing

    Make the person responsible for each employee’s review explicit.

    Administrators manage reviewer eligibility and named employee-to-reviewer relationships. Submission checks for a valid reviewer; self-review follows the organization’s configured policy rather than being assumed for every administrator.

  • Pay-period schedules & timesheet policy

    Adapt timekeeping to the calendar and entry rules your team uses.

    Administrators configure weekly, biweekly, semimonthly or monthly pay-period schedules and effective dates, plus workday expectations, required days, daily limits and future-entry rules. Schedule settings organize timekeeping; they do not process payroll or determine overtime.

  • Personal profile & work timezone

    Keep your own details current while seeing your assigned responsibilities.

    Each person can update their personal name, job title and work timezone in My Profile. Work assignments and reviewer relationships are shown in the person’s permitted scope; editing a personal profile does not change organization permissions.

Readiness & insights

Use saved timekeeping facts for preparation—not as certification or a compliance guarantee.

  • Compliance Readiness & Word narrative

    Review saved timekeeping controls and download a factual system narrative.

    Organization administrators can inspect a timekeeping-only report of saved controls and observed 90-day activity, then download the generated narrative as a Word document. Unverifiable controls and coverage limits remain explicit. This is not a compliance guarantee or an accounting-system adequacy determination.

  • Audit Day packet & private debriefs

    Prepare a dated record packet and keep follow-up work in one private place.

    Administrators can download a read-only HTML evidence packet for the current configured pay period and keep private debriefs with sampled employees, questions, findings and remediation status. The packet distinguishes saved records from missing, unavailable and uncollected evidence; it does not create missing acknowledgments or certify readiness.

  • Employee timekeeping guide

    Give employees a plain-language reference for recording and explaining their time.

    Signed-in organization members can read guidance on assigned charge options, daily entry, submission and corrections. The guide encourages truthful answers in the employee’s own words, not scripted testimony or claims that the product verifies physical presence.

  • Optional aggregate peer benchmarks

    See timekeeping comparisons only when participation and privacy rules allow them.

    Eligible organizations can choose whether to participate in aggregate peer comparisons. Agreement approval, eligibility and privacy thresholds must be met before results appear; otherwise comparisons remain unavailable. Benchmarks do not identify peer employees or certify compliance.

Optional notifications

Additional communication options depend on service setup and individual choices; delivery is not guaranteed.

  • Optional approval & return emails

    Notify an employee about a review decision when the reviewer requests it.

    Where email delivery is configured and enabled, reviewers can request an approval or return email; a return message includes the reason. Email is optional, provider acceptance is not guaranteed inbox delivery, and delivery problems do not undo the saved decision.

  • Consent-based SMS & text time entry

    Use configured text reminders, status alerts and time-entry commands with a verified phone.

    Where the SMS service is configured, people can verify their phone and opt into supported reminders, review/status alerts and text time entry using their saved charge aliases. Consent and separate feature settings apply, availability can vary, and messages remain subject to assignment and timesheet policies. SMS and delivery are not universally available or guaranteed.

Core timekeeping is free. Optional advanced compliance and notification features may be offered separately.
