From the SH3Cmdr User Guide...
Quote:
SH3 Commander automatically recognises when you are docked at a milk cow or other friendly base and will automatically adjust the number of days spent in base to 1 without you needing to manually change via the SH3 Options screen. You can click on the label to toggle status. *Note that extra days will be added if damage needs to be repaired; this is a limitation imposed by Silent Hunter III.

So, three things to keep in mind:
1. If you have *any* damage, you will be docked for the one day
plus however many days it takes to repair the damage.
2. If, for whatever reason, you want to remain in base for only one day (plus any aforementioned damage time)
regardless of where you are docked, simply change the Commander status to "In
other base before patrol x" (to do this, in case it's not obvious, just click on the link to the right of "Status" on the main screen). To use the "standard" number of days in base (as per your "Career Options" settings), change it to "In
home base before patrol x". If you are docked anywhere other than your home base, the status should default to "In
other base before patrol x".
3. SH3 has a bug which manifests itself in patrol dates - I'm too lazy to explain it, but a search will find it.
