# Work Days Settings

> Configure working days for employees in Trackpilots.

The **Work Days** settings page allows administrators to configure working days for each employee. This configuration is used to calculate productivity metrics, attendance tracking, and work-hour analytics.

🔗 **URL:**  [https://app.trackpilots.com/settings/work-days](https://app.trackpilots.com/settings/work-days)

***

## 📌 Overview

Work day settings define which days an employee is expected to work.\
These settings help Trackpilots:

* Calculate active working hours
* Filter non-working days from reports
* Improve productivity and attendance accuracy
* Support custom schedules for teams and individuals

> Once your settings are saved, they will be applied and reflected on the dashboard within **1 hour**.

## 📋 Work Days Table

The table displays all employees and their configured working days.

### **Table Columns**

| Column    | Description                      |
| --------- | -------------------------------- |
| Full Name | Employee name and email address  |
| Monday    | Working day toggle for Monday    |
| Tuesday   | Working day toggle for Tuesday   |
| Wednesday | Working day toggle for Wednesday |
| Thursday  | Working day toggle for Thursday  |
| Friday    | Working day toggle for Friday    |
| Saturday  | Working day toggle for Saturday  |
| Sunday    | Working day toggle for Sunday    |

Each day can be enabled or disabled per employee.

## 👤 Employee Work Day Configuration

Admins can configure work days individually for each employee.

### **Use Cases**

* Full-time employees (Monday–Friday)
* Shift-based employees (Custom days)
* Weekend teams (Saturday–Sunday enabled)
* Remote or hybrid flexible schedules

***

## ⚙️ How It Works

1. Admin selects an employee
2. Admin enables or disables specific weekdays
3. Settings are saved
4. Changes propagate to analytics within **1 hour**

***

## 📊 Impact on Analytics

Work day settings affect the following modules:

* Productivity dashboards
* Attendance reports
* Work-hour calculations
* Idle vs active time metrics
* Compliance reports

> Non-working days are excluded from productivity calculations by default.

***

## 🔐 Permissions & Access Control

Only users with the following roles can modify work days:

* **Admin**
* **Custom Role with Work Days Permission**

Developers can manage access using **[Page Access Control Roles](/docs/access-control/access-control)**.

***

## 🧩 Developer Notes

* Work day configurations are stored per user in the **User Settings Service**
* Changes are cached and synced to analytics pipelines hourly
* API consumers should respect work day flags when computing metrics
* Historical data remains unchanged; only future analytics are affected

***

## ✅ Best Practices

* Define standard work days for all employees
* Customize schedules only when required
* Align work days with payroll and attendance systems
* Review configurations monthly for accuracy
