Default date in Domo is Sunday, I need it to be Monday

Is there a way to change this? The reason it matters is if I am building a pivot table, and my date field is in "Columns", and I select Graph By = Week, it uses Domo's default week start date, which is a Sunday. So my columns will have week start dates that are Sundays. Problem is our company calendar runs off week start dates being Monday.

Does someone know of a way to make the default week start date for a specific dashboard or card to be Monday? That way I could select Graph By = Week and the dates displayed will be Monday dates, not Sunday dates as they currently are. Thank you!

    You can customize your starting day of the week you can look into setting up a customized fiscal calendar. This will allow you to define the start of the week.

    @GrantSmith is the customized fiscal calendar something that would affect all cards across Domo in our organization? I'm looking for a fix for a single dashboard. Thank you!

  • You'd need to enable it on each card you wish to use with the fiscal calendar.

    We have this need. Our clients have a "financial year" loaded into their instances but also like to view boards based on calendar year. This all works fine but their start day of the week is a Monday not Sunday. It would be good if in company settings you could specify the start day.
