Blue – Mobile Time
Represents time tracked using the Time Doctor mobile app, typically for work done away from a computer.

Purple – Leave Time
Shows scheduled leave such as vacation or sick days, recorded via the system’s Leave Management settings.
Gray with White Dot – Paid Break
Identifies company-defined break periods that are paid and included in working hours.
