If the challenge is in "scheduled" status, the start date, start time, time zone, end date, and end time can be updated.
Note: Retroactive challenges, or challenges with a Start Date in the past, will default to have a Start Time of 12:00AM.
If creating a challenge for "today", you will have start time options from the current time forward or 12:00AM. This includes selecting a time zone that is ahead of where you are located, ex. you are located in US/Pacific, but select US/Eastern, and you select a time that is in the past in Eastern time, the challenge will have a 12:00AM start time.

If a Group is actively participating in a challenge, what happens if new users are added to the group?
If the hierarchy level of a challenge is a Group Type (Role, Team, Location, etc), users that are moved into competing groups will automatically become participants in existing challenges. Data for new group members will contribute to the group's score based on the member since date.
If the hierarchy level of a challenge is "Employees > within a specific group" or "select employees based on custom filters", you will be given the option to include or exclude new users who are added to a group after the start of the competition.
If new group members should be added to the competition and any group members who were removed from the group should be removed from the competition, select "Add/Remove Competitors". If you wish to exclude new group members from being added to the competition or prevent removed group members from being removed from the challenge, select "Maintain Original Competitors".
