Customizing Your Weekly Reporting Start Day
Setup Process: Navigate to Business Settings and locate Reporting Configurations to specify a start day for weekly reporting that aligns with your business cycle. This configuration establishes the reporting week for all users associated with the location, not just the individual adjusting. This ensures consistency in data and reporting across your entire team.
Streamlining Dashboard Settings
Unified Management
- All user settings, including Dashboard Layout, are now under the 'Account' page.
Simplifying Time Zone Management in Reports
-
The time zone setting for reports is determined by the first location selected, which typically defaults to your primary location. To modify the report's time zone, users must clear all locations from the dropdown menu in the report configuration and then select their desired location as the primary one. This action establishes the selected location's time zone as the standard for the entire report, ensuring all data is presented in that specific time zone.
-
Automated Adjustments and Clarity: The system automatically aligns the report's time zone with that of your designated primary location. This setting is visible within the location selector and the reports themselves, offering straightforward insight into the time zone governing your report data. This ensures consistency and accuracy in how time-based information is displayed across your reports.
-
Use Cases Managing Multiple Time Zones: For a business operating across EST and CST, setting the primary location to CST ensures all reports align with this time zone, simplifying data analysis.

FAQs
Can multiple users change the 'End of Day Closure Hour' for a single location?
Yes, multiple admin users can adjust the 'End of Day Closure Hour.' However, the most recent change will override any previous settings, so it's advisable to coordinate changes within your team.
How does changing the weekly reporting start day affect our reports?
Adjusting the weekly reporting start day redefines the beginning of your reporting week across all users at your location, ensuring data consistency in your reports. This change aligns all generated reports with your chosen start day for cohesive data analysis.
Will changing the time zone affect historical data?
Changing the time zone setting will not alter historical data but will adjust the display of times in your reports as we advance. Select the appropriate time zone to match your operational location for accurate reporting.
How do time zone adjustments impact reporting for locations in different time zones?
Time zone adjustments are based on your primary selected location. Reports will reflect the time zone of this primary location, ensuring uniformity across reports even if your business operates in multiple time zones. This is crucial for accurate, consolidated reporting across all locations.
What happens if there's a discrepancy in the reporting start day among users?
The reporting start day setting applies to all users at the location, ensuring uniformity in weekly reports. If discrepancies arise, it may be due to individual user settings or errors in selection. Reconfirm the configured start day in 'Business Settings' to ensure alignment across all users.
