## Understanding EmployeeHireDate and EmployeeLeaveDateTime formatting
39+
3940
The EmployeeHireDate and EmployeeLeaveDateTime contain dates and times that must be formatted in a specific way. This means that you may need to use an expression to convert the value of your source attribute to a format that will be accepted by the EmployeeHireDate or EmployeeLeaveDateTime. The table below outlines the format that is expected and provides an example expression on how to convert the values.

To ensure timing accuracy of scheduled workflows it’s curial to consider:

- The time portion of the attribute must be set accordingly, for example the `employeeHireDate` should have a time at the beginning of the day like 1AM or 5AM and the `employeeLeaveDateTime` should have time at the end of the day like 9PM or 11PM

- Workflow won't run earlier than the time specified in the attribute, however the [tenant schedule (default 3h)](customize-workflow-schedule.md) may delay the workflow run. For instance, if you set the `employeeHireDate` to 8AM but the tenant schedule doesn't run until 9AM, the workflow won't be processed until then. If a new hire is starting at 8AM, you would want to set the time to something like (start time - tenant schedule) to ensure it had run before the employee arrives.

- It's recommended, that if you're using temporary access pass (TAP), that you set the maximum lifetime to 24 hours. Doing this will help ensure that the TAP hasn't expired after being sent to an employee who may be in a different timezone. For more information, see [Configure Temporary Access Pass in Azure AD to register Passwordless authentication methods.](../authentication/howto-authentication-temporary-access-pass.md#enable-the-temporary-access-pass-policy)

- When importing the data, you should understand if and how the source provides time zone information for your users to potentially make adjustments to ensure timing accuracy.
