Feature 2: Faster configuration by reusing OOO rules

Most of the time, the reassignment rules are the same. Thus we added recurring rules which will be applicable during your out of office period.

Feature 3: Able to specify the exact time duration out of office

Taking the day off in the afternoon? You can now select a time when you are out of office.

Please note that the time is with reference to the server's timezone, thus, you may need to convert your local time to the server's timezone
