------------------------------------

Hi [~pfm.smits], [~jacques.le.roux],

I looked into this issue and made following findings:

When creating a new time sheet, entry field shows a week from Monday to Sunday while actually created timesheet span from Sunday to Saturday(As already mentioned).

While searching for the root cause of it, found createTimesheetForThisWeek method of TimesheetServices is used to set week start and end date. To set week start, getWeekStart method of UtilDateTime is called which set the first day of the week using Calendar's API .i.e., Sunday, and rightly as also mentioned in Document(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Calendars,+Dates,+and+Times) made by Adrian.

*Solutions:*
If still we agree to set week start day from Monday then following line of getWeekStart() method from UtilDateTime,
*tempCal.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK, tempCal.getFirstDayOfWeek());*
could be replaced with:
*tempCal.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK, tempCal.MONDAY);*
But it will affect through out the application.

                                                          *OR*

For time sheet which shows entry(UI) from Monday to Sunday can be changed to Sunday to Saturday.

Please let me know, if you have any other idea.

Thanks,
Rahul Singh

> When a new time sheet is created, the fields for entering the time spent starts on Monday and end on Sunday, however the date range start on Sunday and ends on Saturday. And the latter range is used to persist the data. 
> So when a time entry is done in the field for Monday it is persisted on the Sunday.
