Uppermost docket could be for the office (7,8)
I believe the answer is:
desktop computer
'the office' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'uppermost docket could be' is the wordplay.
'could be' indicates an anagram.
'uppermost'+'docket'='uppermostdocket'
'uppermostdocket' anagrammed gives 'DESKTOP COMPUTER'.
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for desktop computer that I've seen is " electronic organiser".)
