Set a custom Check-in frequency for a group

Assign a Check-in frequency to one or more groups when different teams need a cadence other than the company default. The frequency you set applies to group members who have no individual override configured.

Before You Begin

  • You must have Account Admin access to Check-in feature settings.
  • Change frequency only at the start of a new Check-in period. Changes made mid-period can generate duplicate or missing Check-ins.
  • This feature is available on Perform, Focus, and Total Platform packages.

Steps

  1. Click the Settings gear in the bottom-left corner of your 15Five account.
  2. Select Features from the dropdown menu.
  3. Click Check-ins to open Check-in feature settings.
  4. Click the arrow next to Customize frequency to expand the frequency options.
  5. Locate the Group Check-in frequency section.
  6. Click the group name field and select the group you want to configure.
  7. Select a frequency for that group: Weekly, Every other week, or Monthly.
  8. To configure an additional group, click + Add row and repeat steps 6–7.
  9. Review any warning about group members who have individual frequency overrides — those members will not be affected by this change.
  10. Click Continue to dismiss the warning and proceed.
  11. Optionally, expand Advanced settings to set how often the Pulse, Priorities, and Objective updates sections appear within Check-ins.
  12. Click Save.

> Note: Pulse, Priorities, and Objectives section frequencies take effect on future Check-ins only. Monthly sections appear on the first Check-in of the month. Biweekly sections appear on the first and third week of each month.

If Something Goes Wrong

Issue Check Fix
A group member's frequency did not change Confirm the member does not have an individual override set Remove or update the individual override in that person's account settings
Warning appeared but no groups were affected The warning fires whenever any selected group contains a member with an individual override — this is expected behavior Click Continue; only members without individual overrides are updated
Save button is not active Verify all added rows have both a group name and a frequency selected Complete any incomplete rows or delete them using the row remove control
Duplicate or missing Check-ins appeared after the change Frequency was changed mid-period Contact 15Five Support with the affected group name and change date
