Workspace Settings

Workspace settings control the defaults and rules that apply to every member. Only owners can change these settings — members see them as read-only.

Workspace name

Click the workspace name to edit it inline. Press Enter to save or Escape to cancel.

Workspace type

Switch between Personal and Team mode using the toggle buttons.

• Personal — single-user workspace. No members, invitations, or team features.
• Team — multi-user workspace with invitations, roles, teams, and password policies.

Caution

You cannot switch back to Personal if the workspace has more than one member. Remove extra members first.

Currency

Choose the workspace currency from the dropdown. This currency is used for hourly rates and billing calculations across all projects and reports. Supported currencies include USD, EUR, GBP, CHF, CAD, AUD, JPY, and many others.

Time tracking requirements

These toggles control what information is required when logging time entries:

Setting	Effect
Require project	Members must assign a project to every time entry.
Require description	Members must add a description to every time entry.

Default project

When “Require project” is off, you can set a default project that is automatically assigned to new time entries. Pick a project from the dropdown, or select “No project” to clear it.

Note

This setting is hidden when “Require project” is enabled, since members will always choose a project themselves.

Default billable

Toggle whether new time entries are marked as billable by default. Members can still change the billable status on individual entries.

Password policy (Team only)

Owners of team workspaces can enforce password strength rules for all members:

1. Strength level — pick from four levels:
   • Default — no special character requirements
   • Letters + digits — must include both letters and numbers
   • Lowercase + uppercase + digits — mixed case plus numbers
   • Lowercase + uppercase + digits + symbols — maximum complexity
2. Minimum length — set between 8 and 128 characters (default is 12).

Changes apply to new signups and password resets going forward.

Auto-onboard domain (Team only)

Automatically add anyone who signs up with a matching email domain to your workspace.

1. Click Configure domain to open the verification dialog.
2. Enter your company domain (e.g. acme.com).
3. Click Save & Check. Zeiter generates a DNS TXT record you must add to your domain.
4. Add the zeiter-verify=<token> TXT record at your DNS provider.
5. Return to the dialog and click Save & Check again. Once verified, the status changes from “Pending” to “Active”.

To disable auto-onboard, click the unlink icon next to the domain name.

Tip

DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate, though most providers update within minutes.

Join URL (Team only)

A join URL lets anyone with the link request to join your workspace without a direct invitation.

1. Click Generate join URL to create a shareable link.
2. Copy the URL and share it with your team.
3. To revoke the link, click the unlink icon. The old URL will stop working immediately.

You can generate a new URL at any time — this invalidates any previously generated link.
