Possible bug: Unable to book Face to Face room for concurrent sessions

We are trying to put Face to Face sessions on which run one after the other (10am-11am, 11am-12pm, etc.) in the same room. Unfortunately the system identifies this as a clash and won't allow the room to be booked in this way.

Is this a bug?

Hi Dan,

F2F tries to prevent scheduling the room for two sessions that overlap. Try setting the session times for 11-11:59, 12-12:59, etc. 

Thanks,

Lori

I figured that that was the work-around, but surely that qualifies as an actual bug since there is no overlap if one session finishes and the other starts at the same time. It also doesn't look great for people using it ("why doesn't it just say 11-12") and from what I can see the drop-down selectors for session time only let you select in 5 minute blocks so it becomes 11-11:55.

Should the F2F module not be checking if a session starts within the time of another?

Regards

Hi Dan,

Yes, I can confirm, it won't allow. I will file a bug and hope it will be included in the next releases of Totara 2.5 (March 4th).
