Workday Templates

1. Feature Overview

Work day templates let you define the schedule and working hours of your organization so you can automatically check-in your users*. It lets you set the timezone you work in, working days and office hours.

Once created, you can assign the templates to teams. So if you have multiple teams working different shifts in different regions, all you have to do is create the appropriate work day templates and apply them to your teams.

Hi, if I change my work day template during business working hours and apply it to my teams will that be applicable from same day itself or tomorrow onwards?

Hello, Puja.
The workday template will be reflected on your accounts on the same day.

If I keep start time 10AM and end time as 7AM, then would it take end time on the same day or next day?

Hi, Shobhit. In this scenario, 7AM the next day is considered as the end time.
