The New Time Interval Overlaps with Two Existing Time Interval

This topic describes the possible scenarios where a new time interval overlaps with two existing time intervals. The effective dates in the new record may overlap with the effective dates in two existing records, as shown in the following figures. In all of these cases, the application displays an error message and does not enter the new effective dates.

This figure shows three time intervals. The old time interval has two periods: the first period starts on Day 1 and ends on Day 3, and the second period starts on Day 3 and ends on Day 4. The new time interval starts on Day 2, and ends on Day 5.
