--explanation--

That should work. is a common, casual way to say that a date or time is acceptable. It shows agreement, though not with total certainty. For example:

  • Person 1: We can meet at 2 p.m. tomorrow. – The first person suggests a date and time for a meeting.

  • Person 2: That should work. – This means the speaker agrees with the time and thinks it will be okay.
