Summary:

Customer would like to prevent duplicate or overlapping entries of time on the same day at the point of time entry. It should prevent submission for approval if overlap exist.

I would like it not to permit submission until the user has rectified the record. Below is sample code from the formula, but there is nothing in there that helps stop the submission...

Howdy, Stranger!
