One system for jobs, people and the work in between.
Growing businesses run on more than a scheduler. chx4-work connects job scheduling, workforce management and client delivery in one platform, so operations stay clear, payroll stays accurate, and the business can scale without adding admin overhead.
Trusted by growing businesses across Australia
Most growing businesses hit the same wall.
The schedule is on a whiteboard. Leave is approved by text. Timesheets are filled in from memory at the end of the week. A new person starts and spends three days waiting on access and paperwork.
It works at 10 staff. At 30 or 50, the same informal approach creates scheduling conflicts, payroll errors, compliance exposure, and a management overhead that grows faster than the business.
chx4-work is built for businesses at this stage: past informal, not yet enterprise.

See every industry →Operational data shouldn't be entered twice.
chx4-work integrates directly with Xero, so approved timesheets, leave records and expense claims flow into payroll and finance with less manual handling and fewer errors.

Built for the growth stage where informal stops working.
At 10 staff, informal processes are manageable. At 50, the same approach creates compliance gaps, scheduling conflicts and a management overhead that grows faster than revenue. chx4-work is the operational layer that connects jobs, people and finance for businesses at exactly this stage: too complex for spreadsheets, too practical for enterprise software.
chx4-work works best for businesses that
- Employ between 10 and 80 staff across jobs, sites or properties
- Run mobile or distributed teams where real-time visibility matters
- Use Xero and want operational data connected to payroll without manual re-entry
- Feel informal systems (spreadsheets, whiteboards, group chats) starting to create real friction
- Need operational control without enterprise-level complexity or cost
It isn't designed for
- Large enterprises with custom ERP requirements
- Businesses that only need basic rostering
- Teams looking for an accounting platform rather than an operational one
