This article explains how to change the weekday when Check-ins are due for people in your organization.
While many teams set Fridays as their due day, there are plenty of reasons to choose another day. For example, if your company follows a four-day workweek, Thursdays might be a better fit. Or, you may want managers to submit their Check-ins a day after their teams, giving them time to review updates first.
Whatever your setup, 15Five makes it easy to customize Check-in due days to fit your team’s workflow.

How to change multiple peoples' due dates 👥
You can change the Check-in due date for multiple people at one either using bulk import or in people settings.
Option 1: Bulk Import
If you’re changing due days for many people or the entire company, the fastest way is to use the bulk import CSV tool.

Follow the steps here to complete a bulk import.
-
In the CSV, include only two columns:
-
The employee’s unique identifier (

-
-
Update the
due_dayvalues as needed, then save the file in UTF-8 CSV format. -
Back in 15Five, click Choose file to upload your CSV.
-
Review your changes on the Preview import screen, then click Finish import.
Option 2: Update in People settings
-
Click the Settings ⚙️ icon in the top-right corner of 15Five.
