Maximum Daily Hours
The Maximum Daily Hours constraint is meant to limit how much an employee may work in a single day — for example the 10 hours German working time law allows.
This constraint is not enforced yet. You can add it to a work time policy and save its setting, but mTime does not check any day against it: no warning appears on the timesheet and submission is never blocked. Do not rely on it to monitor daily working time.
When to use
For now, only to record the intended limit on the policy. Until the check is in place, the Daily Flex Limits constraint is the closest working alternative: it caps overtime per day relative to the day’s norm rather than as an absolute total.
Parameters

The setting is saved, but it has no effect until the check is released.
