One ward posted an event. Then another ward posted an event to the same day, same hours and the system took both events. I thought the system was suppose to prevent duplications. Both of these events are showing up in the reservation calendar. I tried to post another event on the same day and same hours as a test and the system accepted the event. How are duplications prevented?
Thank you - Arlene Dattels

As Gary says, as long as these are events (not reservations) and are using different rooms and/or different locations, then the system will allow it.

Several stake auxiliary leaders ask me to post events for them. One reason I usually decline such requests is because, as an administrator, I am able to create conflicting events. Other users without administrator privileges are not allowed to create conflicting events, unless of course they specify "other location" or "no location".

If you are a Building Scheduler then you can create an event that conflicts with the intent of a Reservation. But you still should not be able to create conflicting events.drepouille wrote:as an administrator, I am able to create conflicting events.
Edit: Also, you can always make a reservation that "conflicts" with an event. That's normal.

I'm an administrator and a building scheduler but when I tried creating a repeating event at the location I'm a scheduler for it wouldn't let me because of a couple of days where there was a conflict. Rather than allowing me to go ahead and create the repeating event and then delete it on the two conflicts, I had to create multiple events to get around the days when there was a conflict.
So apparently it blocks administrators/schedulers from creating conflicts on repeating events.

I'm sure you are verifying the expected behavior. For the benefit of others reading this thread I will restate the programmed behavior.mnmpeterson wrote:So apparently it blocks administrators/schedulers from creating conflicts on repeating events.
This is the expected behavior when speaking of events, regardless of who creates the events. The other expected behavior is that a reservation can be created by a building scheduler on top of an event, or an event created by a building scheduler on top of a reservation.
