Personalise your display, colours and date format

Preferences are your own personal settings. They change how Attendex looks for you only, and they follow you to every device you sign in from. Both admins and employees have them.

Steps

1. Click your name or photo at the top right.
2. Click Preferences. Employees can also open Preferences under Account in the left menu ( open admin Preferences · open employee Preferences).
3. Under Appearance, choose a Display mode: Auto (follow device), Light or Dark.
4. Choose a Theme colour: Violet, Blue, Pink, Green or Orange. It colours buttons, highlights and the menu. You see a live preview as you click.
5. Under General, choose a Date format, for example 25-10-2026, 25/10/2026, 25 Oct 2026 or 2026-10-25.
6. Choose a Time format: 12-hour (2:30 PM) or 24-hour (14:30).
7. Click Save preferences.

Good to know

• Language is English for everyone at the moment.
• Your date and time formats change how dates appear for you across the app. They don't change anything for your colleagues.
• Company-wide settings such as the financial year, time zone and employee codes are set by your administrator — see Set company preferences and employee codes.
