the sensor only updates once a day which is just after midnight.
Are you sure it's not updating as it's meant too?

[piio]

Hi,

I checked it today morning - it didn't change state, but it should from off to on.
I updated HA to 2024.6.0b5, after restart state was changed to correct one - i will change state using developer tools to off and will check tomorrow if state changed to on

[gjohansson-ST]

Thanks for providing some input. I will do a test myself and see if I can replicate the behavior. 👍

[callimeroetsombrero]

Same here. Tried as well to update the sensor with an automation.

[piio]

Today at 00:00 state of workday sensor changed automatically from off to on.

[gjohansson-ST]

I took a look at my own (still on b3) and it also did a refresh this night at 00:00 so I believe it's working as it's supposed to but let's keep the issue open until release and we can monitor so it's not flaky.
It doesn't support manual (automation) refresh so it needs to update itself each night.

Maybe related, today is a holiday in Sweden due to National day, however, the sensor's state is "on". Home Assistant core 2024.6.0

What does the sensor say as last updated?

Last updated 18 hours ago, i.e. yesterday when the system was updated to 2024.6.0

[hvorragend]

Same problem here. Tomorrow is Saturday and my workday tomorrow sensor is 21 hours old and says: ON

I have tried it with homeassistsant.update_entity without success.

But the checkdate response was OFF

[laosz77]

Same behaviour here. Upgraded to 2024.6 on thursday, and as of today (friday), my "Thursday day" sensor shows TRUE, and "Friday day" sensor shows FALSE.

[piio]

Also mine workday_tomorrow (with days_offset 1) shows on instead of off

Reloading using reload_config_entry changed state to off

service: homeassistant.reload_config_entry
data: {}
target:
entity_id: binary_sensor.workday_tomorrow

My configuration of workday sensors:
workdays:

• mon
• tue
• wed
• thu
• fri
  excludes:
• holiday
  days_offset: 0
  friendly_name: Workday Sensor

Same issue here, recent upgrade to 2024.6, 7am workday wake up call on a Saturday

Workday service shows as still on, no update at midnight

[gavinpbennett]

Same here, it is Saturday morning and sensor still shows as workday On. If I run Workday check in Dev tools, it returns the correct response.
Updated to 2024.6.1, same result. Workday sensor does not update. Workday Check date returns correct response.

[jeremysherriff]

Confirming same issue here in NZ (UTC+12), sensor still showing as on despite being a normal weekend.
Dev tools service call returns correct false response.
HAOS, on 2024.6.0

Low-key glad to know it's not me going insane, had to check with the wife twice to confirm I wasn't supposed to be at work 😄

[rover1955]

Same here in Melbourne (UTC+10). Saturday morning and binary_sensor.workday_sensor is TRUE but Workday Check Service shows False (correctly). Updated to 2024.6.0 last Thursday and 2024.6.1 this morning.

[Francois3d]

Sam here in Perth. Similar report as rover1955

[angdolf]

Same issue. 2024.6.0 workday sensor reports workday on on non workday. No issue on previous 2024.5.x.

[MachRat]

Same issue. This morning (Saturday) my workday sensor is on. I'm in Australia/Sydney.

[whiteboxgum]

Same issue. 2024.6.0 workday sensor reports workday on on non workday. No issue on previous 2024.5.x.
I am in Australia/Sydney.

[xsawa32]

Same problem here in Austria/Salzburg. Workday sensor today on Saturday is on. Saturday ist actually in exception list. also sunday and holiday

[as19git67]

I also see it today in Bavaria, Germany. Workday sensor today on Saturday is on. Saturday, Sunday and Holiday are in the exception list.

[WoMec]

I hade same issue today morning but right after update to 2024.6.1 workday sensor switched correctly.

probably fixed by this: #118414

[Lanstrom]

Arrgh. I'm in big trouble with my family. It's Saturday morning here in the UK and all my morning wake up alarms have just activated. It's worked perfectly for months. Saturday is in the exclude list but the sensor is ON.

If you don't hear from me again it's because I am buried under the patio ;-)

Same issue for me

[KNXBroker]

I think developers are aware about the issue 👍 almost everyone seems to have the problem . In the meantime I'm going to use an automation reloading the integration each day one time.

alias: Workday Reload
description: ""
trigger:
  - platform: time
    at: "01:00:00"
condition: []
action:
  - service: homeassistant.reload_config_entry
    target:
      entity_id: binary_sensor.workday_sensor
    data: {}
mode: single

[TomBrien]

For anyone looking to fix: I think in #116419 the time passed to update data has changed from dt_util.now() to dt_util.utcnow(). I won't be able to put in a PR for a couple of hours. I think this is an issue for anyone ahead of UTC.

[starschild86]

Same here with 2024.6.1 :\ I have to stop updating too soon or my girlfriend will kill me 😅

[balloob]

Everyone please stop commenting if you also have the issue and instead put a 👍 on the first post.

[m0wlheld]

I have two instances of workday binary sensor configured, on has an offset of one day (is tomorrow a workday).

While the one with offset got properly updated with HA 2024.6, the one without offset didn‘t.

[elchanly]

Solved upgrading to .4 🤩
