Workspaces

A workspace (sometimes called an organization) is the isolated container for one business's data. Everything else in Hoursmith — your clients, projects, time, invoices, payments, and team — lives inside a single workspace and never leaks into another.

One workspace per business

Think of a workspace as one company's books. Its data is fully separate from every other workspace, so there's no risk of a client or invoice from one business showing up in another.

You can belong to multiple workspaces and switch between them at any time — handy if you run more than one business, or if you've been invited into someone else's. You can also create as many workspaces as you like, and each one is billed independently on its own plan.

When you create a workspace, you become its Owner — the one person with full control, including billing and closing the workspace.

How a workspace fits the model

The workspace sits around the billing line rather than on it. The Clients → Projects → Tasks → Time → Invoices → Payment chain plays out entirely within one workspace:

• Your billing defaults, team, plan, and email/payment settings are all workspace-scoped.
• Switching workspaces switches all of that context at once.

Working with workspaces

• Create one for each separate business you run; there's no limit.
• Switch between workspaces to move between businesses you own or have joined.
• Configure workspace-wide settings — name, branding, email, payments — under Workspace settings.
