Description
Return travel*fraction+contact+documentation and contact divided by that total.
Extension-service time budgets distinguish contact, travel, closed cases, credited pauses and source-validity periods. Allocated person-time differs from elapsed time, while half-open source periods differ from closed deadline checks. A supplied deadline or pause is not automatically an official service requirement.
Return travel*fraction+contact+documentation and contact divided by that total.
When to use this tool
Use Extension Visit Travel Contact Time Share when checking the stated contact/travel, response or source-period convention.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter travel, contact, documentation, sharedTravelFraction. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read allocatedTime, contactShare. Use the output convention below.
Require nonnegative travel/contact/documentation and sharedTravelFraction in [0,1], with positive allocated total. Return travel*fraction+contact+documentation and contact divided by that total.1

| contact | Contact | Required. Finite number; minimum 0. |
| documentation | Documentation | Required. Finite number; minimum 0. |
| sharedTravelFraction | Allocated share of travel retained in the time budget, not the share subtracted. Unit: 1. | Required. Finite number; minimum 0; maximum 1. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- Travel fraction is the allocated share retained, not a discount deducted; real schedules and work quality are not inferred.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use verified clock, journey and source records with the governing service and reimbursement policies for actual performance or payment decisions.
