Initially, it is possible in timeghost that time entries of a user can overlap within a certain period of time.  


This can be useful, for example, if a user works on different tasks or projects at the same time or if his task is billable to several clients.


In this case, when a user creates a time entry whose time period falls within that of a time entry he has already created, the user still receives a notice informing him this fact:

Since the handling here can vary from company to company or even department, this basic setting can also be deactivated, which actively prevents the booking of overlapping times of a user on the same period.


In this case, the user receives an error message that overlapping time entries are not allowed in his workspace:

Consequently, the new time entry is not saved.


How exactly you as an administrator can deactivate or later reactivate the overlapping of times in your workspace is explained step by step below:
