1)I will have finished my work by the time (that) you come back.

2)I'll call you at 2:00. I hope you'll have finished your work by the time (that) I call you.



In a structıral sense what's (that) doing in above sentences ( adjective clause , noun clause or? )

In both sentences, that functions as a relative pronoun.
