OOO return digest reconciling what the backup approved
On the morning your Outlook OOO ends, this compiles every approval your backup handled while you were away into a single digest email and Teams summary.

What it does
When your out-of-office period ends, it pulls the log of approvals that were delegated and acted on by your backup and assembles a return digest. The digest summarizes what was approved, what was rejected, and what is still pending, then delivers it to you by email and posts a short recap to your team channel in Teams.
When to use it
You are back from leave and need a fast, trustworthy picture of every decision made in your name, plus a clear list of anything that still needs you, without scrolling weeks of email.
