    How to change the first day of the week in my calendar

    Feature

     

    You can easily change your Calendar View or Widget to show the first day of the work week to be either Sunday or Monday. Read on below to learn how! 📆

     

    Individual user settings

    Individual users on the account can set their work week via their profile section, which will change the appearance of their calendar by showing either Sunday or Monday as the first day.

    First, click on your profile picture on the top right-hand corner of your screen and click on "My Profile" as below:

    Select the "Language & region" tab on the left hand panel: Account- Language and Region Section.png

     

    From here you can choose the first day of the week that will appear on your calendar, as being either Sunday or Monday:

    Note: This feature is for personal presentational purposes only and will not change the functionality of the defined work week on the account. To change the work week on an account level, read the below section. 

     

    Account settings

    As an admin of the account, you can determine the first day of the work week on an account level, which will impact the functionality of the Date column, Timeline column, Calendar widget and Workload widget. 

    To access the administration settings, click on your profile icon in the top right-hand corner of your page and select "Administration" as below:Group 30 (2).png

    Under the "General" section, click on the "Account" tab in the top panel:

    Account- Change Work Week 1.png

     

    Under "Weekends" select your weekend to be either "Friday- Saturday", or "Saturday- Sunday", according to your preferences.

    The change will indicate which day is to be considered the first day of the week, and will apply for your monday.com account. You can now open your calendar on the Date Column, Timeline or Calendar View or Widget and see your week reflecting those changes. 

    If you have any questions, please reach out to our team right here. We’re available 24/7 and happy to help.
