# Default message notifications

> Learn how to configure default message notifications for DingTalk Attendance. Admins can set default toggles for clock-in reminders, personal daily, weekly, and monthly attendance reports, and missed clock-in reminders, while employees can still adjust these settings themselves.

## Overview

Admins can **turn message notifications on or off by default for employees**, including clock-in reminders, personal daily, weekly, and monthly attendance reports, and missed clock-in reminders. These defaults apply only to employees who have not previously adjusted the related settings themselves. Once the defaults take effect, employees can still change the settings in the Attendance app.

## Use cases

This feature is designed for Organization Admins who want to configure default clock-in message notifications for employees.

## Steps

### Clock-in reminders

#### Personal clock-in reminders

Go to **DingTalk mobile app > Workbench > Attendance > Personal Settings > Clock-in Reminder** to configure **DING Reminder / Work Notifications / System Alarm Reminder.**

<Note>
  **Notes:**

  1. DING Reminder: sends scheduled notifications with a continuous ringtone.

  2. Work Notifications: sends scheduled app notifications.

  3. System Alarm: triggers the phone's alarm as a reminder.

## What happens when defaults are enabled

### Clock-in reminders

Once an admin enables clock-in reminders for employees, those who do not change the settings receive reminders 10 minutes before their shift starts.

### Personal weekly and monthly attendance reports

When enabled, employees receive a monthly clock-in summary on the first working day of each month and a weekly clock-in summary every Monday by default.

### Missed clock-in reminders

When enabled, missed clock-in reminders for the previous day are pushed as Work Notifications after 10:00 each day.
