Viewing and Editing Login Hours in the Enhanced Profile User Interface
For each profile, you can specify the hours when users can log in.
1. From Setup, click Manage Users > Profiles.
2. Select a profile and click its name.
3. In the profile overview page, scroll down to Login Hours and click Edit.
4. Set the days and hours when users with this profile can log in to the organization.
To allow users to log in at any time, click Clear all times. To prohibit users from using the
system on a specific day, set the start and end times to the same value.
If users are logged in when their login hours end, they can continue to view their current page,
but they can’t take any further action.

Note: The first time login hours are set for a profile, the hours are based on the organization’s
Default Time Zone as specified in Setup at Company Profile > Company
Information. After that, any changes to the organization’s Default Time Zone won’t
change the time zone for the profile’s login hours. As a result, the login hours are always
applied at those exact times even if a user is in a different time zone or if the organization’s
default time zone is changed.
Depending on whether you’re viewing or editing login hours, the hours may appear differently.
On the Login Hours edit page, hours are shown in your specified time zone. On the profile
overview page, they appear in the organization’s original default time zone.
To view login hour settings:
• “View Setup and
Configuration”
To edit login hour settings:
• “Manage Profiles and
Permission Sets”
