How to set the working days to Monday-Saturday?

Is there a way to change the business days to Monday-Saturday on monday.com? When I hide weekends I want to hide only the Sunday. And the same will be considered when using formula.

Hey @donaldcornel, good question! At the moment the only options for business days are Monday-Friday or Sunday-Thursday.

Feel free to write to support@monday.com and we can see if there are any work arounds that would help given your use case.

Hi @TRB-monday.com,

This is because there are lots of companies in the Philippines having Mon-Sat working days. Hope there should be a flexibility on setting business hours and local holidays as well.

Hi @TRB-monday.com ,
I am having the same issue. We need this as well, as well as holidays (manuel set up woud be good as well). I am working a lot with functions and I was trying to somehow get it right.
WORKDAYS obv. doesnt work that well as Saturday isnt in it. Buy can you do someting like DAYS({Date1}, {Date2}) - SUNDAY (or anything like this?). Would be good to have every weekday set as a usable parameter (mon, tue, wed, thu, fri, sat, sun maybe).
Maybe even something like IF(Date.incl sun - 1).
Hope you can yet help us.

You mention you hide weekends, where and how have you been able to populate a weekend?
Our team only works Monday to Friday so Iā€™m trying to do something similar and stop time tracking if the weekend has started.

Many thanks

Hey @Eisbaer99 ,

in a formula you can use WORKDAYS instead of DAYS. This excludes Saturday + Sunday.

Ah ok, yes Iā€™ve already used this in a formula but then Iā€™m unable to reference the field in an automation - I was hoping it was a setting somewhere.

Thank you

Maybe try and use the General Caster App in the Monday App Marketplace. Dw, its free.
There you have an automation called ā€œWhen any column changes, perform existing formula and cast the result to columnā€. This way you can cast formula results to actual columns that can be used in automations.
I have made it work in some cases but if it gets too complex it sometimes bugs, I hope it checks out for your use.

AH yes. The ubiquitous Sunday-Thursday workweek. Itā€™s not a featureā€¦ itā€™s a bug.
