Overview of flexitime and vacation days
Flexitime, overtime, and travel time

Some employees may also have other types of time balances such as for voyages, fieldwork, etc. The balances are updated every night and are displayed in hours and minutes. Details can be found by tapping the icon at the top right of the time balance.
Difference between flexitime balance and flexitime compensatory time
Flexitime balance shows the plus or minus hours you have accumulated. Flexitime compensatory time shows how many days you have available for compensatory time off.
