Separate real work from stepped-away time — measured against your real hours
Separate real work from stepped-away time — measured against your real hours
Step away from the machine and DoTally labels that time away, so coffee runs and meetings away from the keyboard never inflate your hours. Your Administrator sets the away threshold, 10 minutes by default; you set your workday once in Settings.

WHY IT MATTERS
Hours that mean what they say
pause_circle
Idle time never counts as work
Once the threshold passes, a stretch away is labelled away, not active.

Away isn't the same as not working
Lunch, a meeting, a walk. Add a reason so it's never misread.

INACTIVE THRESHOLD
Your Administrator decides when idle becomes away
No keyboard or mouse activity for your workspace’s threshold or longer, and that stretch counts as away. Shorter gaps stay active time. 10 minutes by default; your Administrator can pick anything from 10 to 60 in Workday Settings.
