Set Survey Start Date

Security:

.
When you set a survey start date and enable data collection, the survey round will automatically open on the selected start date, at 00:30 in the time zone that you've set in the survey schedule.
Once your specified send-out time comes, employees will receive survey notifications. However, employees can already answer their survey by signing in at any point after the round has opened.
If your survey already has a start date that you'd like to edit, see Change Survey Start Date.
