Favorite Features

The favorite features functionality in Home provides a quick way to access the six features that you use most frequently. Depending on your screen resolution, Dayforce might show fewer than six favorite features. You can still configure up to six favorites, but Dayforce shows only as many as can fit on the screen.

When you log in, Dayforce shows your favorites at the top of the Home screen:

Home page with favorite features highlighted.

By default, your favorites are set to either:

  • The first six features that you have access to, alphabetically, or
  • A custom set of six features configured for your role by your organization's Dayforce administrator.

Edit Your Favorite Features

You can change your favorites if the default features on the Home screen aren't the ones that you use most often. Your favorites are specific to your user role. If you have more than one user role (for example, a manager role and an employee role), you can configure a different set of favorites for each role.

To edit your favorite features:

  1. Go to Home and then click Edit:
  2. Favorite features with Edit button highlighted.
  3. In the Edit Favorites dialog box, do any of the following:
    • To add a feature to your favorites, drag it from the bottom portion of the screen to the top. Dayforce shows a green arrow when you've dragged it somewhere that it can be docked.
    • To remove a feature from your favorites, click the X at the top right of the feature icon.
    • To change the order of your favorites, drag them to another position.
    • To restore the default favorite features, click Restore to Default.
  4. Click Save.
