By default, a user can add offline time to claim the hours that they spend off computer, such as phone calls, writing notes, thinking and etc. As a manager, you can define the rule for a user to add offline time. The rule defines a period after which the user cannot add offline time anymore. For example, you can set "the user cannot add offline time after 3 days have passed". As a result, the user cannot add offline time for the period 3 days ago or earlier. 


Here are the steps of how to set the rule for adding offline time by your users.
