How to avoid avoid scheduling overlapped appointments

[dsapo]

Hi Support:

We need to avoid our user to create new appointments that overlap their existing appointments.  

For example: suppose that a user has an appointment for tomorrow between 2:00pm and 5:00pm.

Then he wants to add a new appointment from 1:00 pm thru 3:00pm or from 4:00 pm thru 6:00 pm.  How can we add some kind of validation to avoid creating the last entry.

Appreciate any advise to achieve that.

Thanks in advanced

Hi David,  

  

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support. 

 

We have prepared the sample to prevent the rendering of an appointment with in another appointment range which can be viewed from the below link.

<Code> 

beforeAppointmentCreate: "OnBeforeAppointmentCreate" 

 

function OnBeforeAppointmentCreate(args) { 

    if (ej.isNullOrUndefined(args.appointment[0])) 

        app = args.appointment; 

    else 

        app = args.appointment[0];                      

       overlapList = this._overlapApp(app["AppTaskId"], app[this._appointmentSettings["startTime"]], app[this._appointmentSettings["endTime"]], ""); 

   if (overlapList.length>0) 

     args.cancel = true; 

} 

</Code> 

Note: Above sample is made in JS platform for your reference.
