Changing the Definition of a Week to Mon-Sun

[FallCityFloatin]

Hi Everyone,

Just curious if there is a method or plans on the horizon to be able to change the Week format when looking at Sales Reports. My business operates on a Monday - Sunday schedule versus the default Sunday - Saturday reporting that Square offers. Is there a way to change this so that I don't have to do custom dates everytime I want to view the way that we see a week to compare my business results?

Thanks!

Thank you for your post @FallCityFloatin! 

At this time there isn't a way to change the format of a week so that that the Sales Reports ('This Week', 'Last Week) start on Monday.

I do see how that would be helpful and I'll share your interest in this with our Product Team.

I'll also check in with that team to see if this is on our roadmap, and I'll let you know here as soon as I can!

I would like to be able to set a Monday-Sunday calendar in the appointments app. I operate where weekends are the base unit of time and it's annoying that each weekend is split over 2 weeks.

This reply was created from merging an existing thread: How can I have the week start on a Monday rather than on Sunday?

Anyone know if it can be done?

[Helen]

Hello @TwinRoads! I've moved your post to this thread because this is still a feature request. If it's possible to change your reporting so a week starts on Monday we'll post in this thread to let you know.

Thanks for joining the Seller Community!

Hello Helen!

Just wanted to see if there was any progress with this feature? Being able to start the week on Monday would be very helpful for running reports

[Helen]

I don't have an update to share at this time @TaliaF. We'll post here to announce any updates on this request. Thanks for your patience in the meantime!

It has been almost 3 years since the initial request. When will this be an option? It's obvious that multiple sellers want the ability. @Helen

Hi @HossBurgerShop. Regrettably I don't have an answer as far as when this would be implemented. But I can promise you that we're still tracking this request.

[samSkyler]

Its been years since this request, whats going on?

Hi there, @samSkyler - thanks for reaching out and checking in on this Feature Request. It looks like we are still tracking this request in hopes that it may be implemented somewhere down the road.

As soon as we have more information in regards to a specific timeline, we will reach back out to everyone here on this thread directly. Thanks for hanging in there.

Take this as another vote, my business mostly works weekends, friday-sunday, and it's annoying to have to create custom reports to see the whole weekend.

[BSLprints]

Ok I'm pretty frustrated with this. I've worked for one company ever that tracked time Sunday-Saturday. 99% of the USA uses Monday-Sunday workweek. 

[kmbarnes55]

I second the idea that a Monday-Sunday reporting week would better fit for a majority of sellers.

this request is like so long...... its been years for such a small request of giving another option on the calendar where people actually use it on daily basis like at least a good few times a day. Its very important that a calender is able to work functionally effective for its users esp when its important to allocate work/schedule for their employees/colleagues. Not only in the US but worldwide people start with a Monday even in other industries such as beauty services/retails etc. Square need to work on this as this is priority as this goes very closely with payrolls as well.

Our business is trying to consolidate and use Square for many of our services, BUT a Monday-Sunday work-week would be extremely helpful for scheduling and reports!

The world works Mon - Sun. Not sure why your devs decided to buck to trend and make our week Sun - Sat. It's annoying. It should be a simple setting. Why is it taking you guys soooooo long to implement this change?

[Jrose383]

Every other POS system allows for you to change this setting, Why has nothing been done for this? Does my company just need to change to Toast? Seriously we spend enough time working we shouldn't have to work harder on something so simple. please fix asap

[kayogaayurveda]

I remember chiming in on a similar request years ago. Count me as another interested customer, and one that's confused why the hold up?

[northparkcream]

This topic has been open since 2017. Now that Jack Dorsey is full time on Square, hopefully this simple change request will get some attention. Seriously, how hard can it be to make the week customizable?
