Is there anyway to change what the default days are for @WeekStart and @WeekEnd? We start our week on Saturday not Sunday.

I believe the @WeekStart is driven by the local settings in Acumatica.  See the article on the Acumatica website: Acumatica Help Article

The Time and Expense Preferences screen provides the ability to customize the start date of a week. I don't know if that will affect the results of the @WeekStart and @WeekEnd system variables but you can try in a test company and see if it works for you. Form: EP101000.

Unfortunately, @StartWeek day doesn't match the First Day of the week in the Time and Expense Preferences (EP101000). Thanks

I thought that might be the case. The next option is to use the @StartWeek variable within a function that adds a -1 to the date returned by the variable.

This won't always be possible. For example, if you are using the variable on the conditions tab of a GI.

@shawn-slavin

Functions seem to be available in Conditions but not in Parameters. So I am able to use =(DateAdd( [Date], ‘D’, -1))  in my conditions but not in the default value of my Parameter. Any other suggestions? I can't believe every company using Acumatica is happy using Sunday - Saturday as their starting and ending days for their week.

Good point Alisaan. I just created a feedback idea for this. Would you might adding both a Vote and a Comment to it?

I voted for this.  I don't run into it often, but it is frustrating when I do.
