Context section

The Context provides information that can impact working hour calculations. For some items such as the policy, the section lists multiple values and uses a check or cross after the value to indicate which one actually applies to the team member. For example, if the team member has a policy override, the value next to Team Member Policy has a check and the Team Member's Department Policy has a cross.

A tick indicates that item is used for this Team Member and is included in the calculation.  A cross indicates that item is not used for this Team Member and is not included in the calculation.  So in the example screenshot above settings are used from:
