Locations & timezones

Locations in Worknice help you organise your workforce and paperwork. Once set up, you can filter people, paperwork, and even reports (if you have the Insights add-on) by location.


Why use locations?

Locations let you segment your data in meaningful ways. For example:

  • By office

  • By store

  • By state

  • By country

For more flexible or sophisticated segmentation, you can use Tags alongside locations. We recommend keeping locations simple and consistent, then using tags for additional detail.


How to add or edit a location

  1. Go to Settings > Locations.

  2. Click Add Location.

  3. Enter the location details, including its timezone.

  4. Save your changes.

Each new location will use the default timezone you have configured


Timezones

Each location can be assigned a timezone. This ensures that:

  • Deadlines and due dates are accurate for employees in different regions.

  • Notifications are sent at the correct local time.

  • Insights reporting aligns to the right timezone.


Setting default timezone

  1. Go to Settings > General.

  2. In the Organisations card, click Edit on the organisation you want to update.

  3. Set you default timezone

You can set a timezone different to the default when creating new locations or editing existing locations


Typical Use Cases

  • Multi-office businesses – assign employees to their local office.

  • Retail or franchise networks – segment by store.

  • National or global teams – track compliance by state, region, or country.
