Working schedule changes a user's working status automatically

Description

Automatically update the working status in the user profile based on the Work schedule in Monday administration → General → Work schedule. When you are off in the work schedule, your working status will automatically change to ‘Out of Office’.

What are you trying to achieve

Automatically updating a user’s working status based on their work schedule. The user will not need to specify when they are off, it will automatically switch them to out of office based on the working schedule

Great idea! Automating status changes based on work schedules would enhance efficiency and reduce manual updates. Hope it gets implemented!

We built an Out of Office Assistant for monday that handles OOO coverage automatically.

What it does

  • Each user sets their OOO dates + backup once (Global setting)

  • On boards you choose: when the owner is OOO, the app posts a clear update

  • Optional auto-reassign to the backup (Hard mode)

  • If the backup isn’t a board subscriber (private board), it won’t reassign—it will only notify in updates

  • Optional @mention auto-reply with rate-limiting
