Having to fill in a specific block for every single day is a little time consuming, so if there was a way to do something like "apply 8:30 to 5:30 block Monday through Friday" that would be great, but I understand that that might lead people to putting in inaccurate hours. **What problems is Workday Compensation solving and how is that benefiting you?** Just an end user at a company using it.
