How to set the company setting for new users:

For new users that will be created moving forward, you can set a default company week starts option by navigating to Administration > Global settings > [Display] Time settings > Week starts (default). Whenever a new user is created into the account, the new user will now have the default week start day on his/her/their user demographics.
