Manage Bilflo records in Claude Desktop

Use `list_clients` or `list_contractors` to pull active staffing data right into your conversation. You get the exact info you need without switching tabs or digging through the portal. Running `get_client` or `get_contractor` gives you deep-dive specifics on anyone in your system. It puts the facts in front of you so you can make decisions on the fly.

Automate timecard tracking with your MCP Server

Call `list_timecards` to see exactly what hours are coming in across your entire workforce. This MCP Server makes it trivial to spot missing entries before they turn into payroll headaches. Grab specific details with `get_timecard` to audit individual submissions. You'll see exactly where your budget is going without manual spreadsheet exports.

Check staffing rules inside Claude Desktop

Run `list_overtime_rules` to confirm compliance requirements for your current projects. The AI reads these directly, ensuring you don't miss a policy shift. Compare these rules against `list_placements` to verify your team is staffed correctly. It's a quick way to keep your operations in line with company policy.
