How to set different working hours on the calendar for each day of the week!

We have some employees that are part time and work different hours on different days of the week. It looks like currently we can only set our "work time" as the same start and end time on the days we mark for the "work week". Is there not a way to set the working hours to be different on different days? Not everyone works Monday through Friday from 9am to 5pm....

For example: Mondays and Wednesdays 9am-2pm, Tuesdays and Thursdays 12pm-5pm.

I know that recurring meetings could just be scheduled and block off the times, but that is not ideal and seems this more advanced & customizable feature should be available. Appreciate any feedback.

    I have the same issue! Alternate work days over a 2 week period. Would be great to have a solution other than changing them each week which is not practical.

    Is there a way to set up different days and hours for each week as opposed to recurring every week?

    Currently I have to go in and adjust my work schedule each week. (Some weeks I work M, T, TH other weeks I work T,W, TH other weeks W, TH, F Would be nice to be able to set up a month in advance as opposed to having to adjust each week)

    I was unable to get either of the solutions below to work and that might be because of the organization I'm tied to.

    I did however use a workaround so that I could show different working hours on different days. My working hours are:

    • Monday & Tuesday: 7:30 AM – 4:00 PM
    • Wednesday to Friday: 6:00 AM – 3:00 PM

    I set my overall working hours for Monday-Friday to 6am-4pm and then put in a reoccurring OOTO on Mon/Tue from 6-7:30 and another on Wed-Fri from 3pm-4pm.

    Now team members can easily see on my calendar, and I don't have to maintain it.

    Did you figure out how to do it in the desktop version? It won't let me specify days either and that's what I use.

    No, I think it might have been removed from the app version unfortunately.
