Option for "Work on Weekends" at the Project level
The "work on weekends" scheduling option is currently only available at the Task level and the Account level. We have a diverse and varied staff at our organization and for those Projects that must have tasks scheduled across a 7-day work week, it's been inconvenient for staff to have to mark every single task as "work on weekends", but it's not viable for us to make that change at the Account level for our entire staff.
Hi Matt, great suggestion! I've looked for something like this before, so appreciate seeing this here.
We would really like this as well
Us too.
We would really benefit from this as well!
Yes please - this would help a lot!
Hey guys, thanks for your input here. I'll get back to you if/when I have news, and for now let's try to promote the suggestion to get more votes and use-cases here - I'll mention this post on the threads where possible 🙂

This would be very useful.
Would definitely benefit from this.
I'm more inclined to use Wrike competitors that have the ability to apply a 7-day work week to all gantts as our work load is 24/7.
+1 for this feature!
Please, this would be very helpful! Especially with the new "Personal" space it makes even more sense :)
Would also like this
+1 Itis a huge pain to have to check every task for the things that are 24x7
Would definitely benefit from this. We are a global company and need to utilize a full 7 day work week simply due to time differences in different regions of the world.
Yes, I'd also like to request this feature.
We will need this, too. Any updates on if this is happening?
Hi everyone, thanks a lot for your continued input here!
I've checked with the team, and this is currently not something they are planning to implement. I'll keep you posted if something changes here, and thank you again for all your feedback!

It would be great if each seat could register their own working days (including when they take irregular occurring days off such as for holidays and PTO) and then tasks that are assigned to them would account for their specific arrangement. That way if I assign a five day task to someone who is only working three days that week, due to the weekend and two days of PTO, the task would only consider three days that week to be working days and would spill the remaining two tasks days into the next week.
Hi Tyson Hardcastle, welcome to the Community! 🙂
This should be possible with personal calendar exceptions - here's more info on our Help Center.
Please let me know if that helps 👐

Lisa Thank you for the information. I will play around with the personal calendar and see if this is the feature I've been looking for!
Thanks for getting back to me Tyson Hardcastle! Please let me know how it goes 🙌

Hello - new user here :-)
Is it still not possible to set a 7-day work week as default? I will work with project timeline blueprints - is the only option then to go over all tasks in the blueprint and un-check the tick box?
Best regards, Morten
Hi Morten Laursen, welcome to the Community 👋
It's possible to set up account schedules and then choose them on an individual level in Settings:
Does this help?

Hi Lisa
Thank you for the response - I updated the account work schedule to 7 days/week and that seem to solve it.
Best regards, Morten
I'm so glad to hear that Morten Laursen!
Please let me know if there's anything else I can help you with 🙂

I can't seem to find the Personal Settings. Is it not available during the trail period?
Hi Sandra Figueredo, welcome to the Community 👋 Apologies for the late reply. I've asked my colleagues from the Support team to reach out to you about this, and I can see they contacted you 👍 Could you please let me know if you're using personal settings now?

We attend many tradeshows which often times start on the weekend. I know you can schedule tasks on non-working days but these are set up as projects. Any more thought on adding this option to projects?
