If you enabled "Reported Colors" and/or "Planned Colors" on the "Calendar Management" screen, additional color indication is provided for daily totals that are below or under configured intervals. The totals that are below the configured interval are displayed in orange while exceeding totals - in red color. So every user sees if they have planned and reported the expected number of hours.

For each time block following info is shown: start time, end time (not shown for short blocks and in month mode), issue type icon, issue number, reporter (if multi users selected on the left panel), duration and work comment. For small time blocks you can hover over to see all the info in a tooltip.

"Missed due date", "No Estimate", "Estimate exceeded" icons are shown for time blocks that belong to issues with appropriate worklog attributes.

"Inactive issue" icon is shown for worklogs that belong to issues that are in statuses marked as inactive or for inactive projects. Such time entries can not be edited, deleted nor new worklogs can be reported for inactive issues. See "Calendar creation & General tab" how to configure inactive projects and statuses.
