+Table: Time Worked [task_time_worked]
+Type: onsubmit
+
+#Objective :
+Ensure that time entries (represented by the work_date field) are not submitted after 8:00 PM CST on two key dates:
+The 16th of the month and The last day of the month
+If a user tries to submit time for a current or past date after the cut-off time, the submission is blocked and a clear error message is displayed.
+
+#Business Scenario
+Imagine a consulting firm where employees log billable hours against customer cases. There are internal controls in place that lock the timekeeping system after a certain cut-off time to ensure accurate payroll and billing.
+
+The finance department requires that:
+On the 16th and last day of each month, submissions must be in before 8:00 PM CST.
+If employees miss the deadline, they can only log time for future dates (not today or the past).
