SeedCode Support Forum

Hi John:
I have my version of SeedCode Complete set to show conflicts. I generally schedule appointments in 15 minute intervals (in fact, have modified the ApptTimeEnd field to equal ApptTimeStart + (15*60) by default). But my Daily view shows a conflict when I have one appointment at 2:00-2:15 and a second appointment at 2:15-2:30. I thought that it was not supposed to show a conflict unless the appointments overlapped by more than one minute. Could I have messed something up here?

Yours,
Jim Recht

I saw your post and wanted to come up with something better than "schedule the first one to end a minute sooner". The conflict logic is pretty complicated so I'm looking at a change that would rectify this, but editing your duration calc might be simpler.

While using the last version of SeedCode Calendar, I didn't have this problem. Does SeedCode Complete contain a different set of time/conflict calcs?

Yes, we've changed these calsc in Complete.

If you want to change the conflict calcs so that items starting and ending at the same times don't conflict (so that an appointment from 9am to 10am doesn't conflict with one from 10am to 11am), make the following changes to two calcs in the appointments table:

Change z_ApptConflictTimeRange_k_Calc1 to:

SeedCode_TimeStampRangeLeftHand ( ApptDateStart_k ; ApptTimeStart +1 ; ApptDateEndCalc_k ; ApptTimeEndCalc -1 )

And change z_ApptConflictTimeRange_k_Calc2 to:

SeedCode_TimeStampRangeRightHand ( ApptDateStart_k ; ApptTimeStart + 1 ; ApptDateEndCalc_k ; ApptTimeEndCalc - 1 )

Hope that helps.

Wow! I get it. Will do. Thanks John!
