# Scheduling Time Threshold **Scheduling Time Threshold** can be applied to **occupy a room and its workstations** for a *little longer* before and after an event. This allows learners and SPs to **enter data on the room's authorized workstations without delaying** the next event in the same room. The system warns you in the **Calendar** module about Events that are **overlapping** due to the time threshold: ![](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/48ddf0a7-308b-4fe9-b28a-e3ce1797eaa8/a636f71c-df76-4026-85b6-705efab77361/76908724.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20260909%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20260909T120000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=02f85a5ed4e62e4dd75edc78f362b78930a5b72e975b207d4f95224ef4abd526&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject "left-50 =20x") ![](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/48ddf0a7-308b-4fe9-b28a-e3ce1797eaa8/27d1e951-4427-4b2b-b903-803d6047ad06/135168120.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20260909%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20260909T120000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=66a5bca64221e5187d3495653b278984f6705cdc3fe7defeb8b3e8402513a2ac&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject) :::warning The **Scheduling Time Threshold** *does not affect the start and end time of events* but occupies the room(s) for a specified number of minutes **before and after the event**. Events that overlap each other are marked with a warning sign: ![](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/48ddf0a7-308b-4fe9-b28a-e3ce1797eaa8/a636f71c-df76-4026-85b6-705efab77361/76908724.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20260909%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20260909T120000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=02f85a5ed4e62e4dd75edc78f362b78930a5b72e975b207d4f95224ef4abd526&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject) This means there weren't long enough breaks left before and/or after the events. ***Example:*** If a 15-minute scheduling time threshold is set, there must be at least a 30-minute "break" between events assigned to the same room: 15 minutes after the current event **and** 15 minutes before the next one. ::: The threshold can be set on the [**General**](/doc/general-system-information-6jNQRhhNd8) tab of the [**System Manager**](/doc/system-manager-ar9EDnlVcL) module. The setting affects scheduling in general, which means each **Event needs to be scheduled accordingly**, or the system will warn you about the scheduling error. ![](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/48ddf0a7-308b-4fe9-b28a-e3ce1797eaa8/647090bb-0c94-495f-9dba-1ea162380767/135168121.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20260909%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20260909T120000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=f6138649316f97fe125f3b83a7567e4d9bc64980f4958418bd419197c1b36a6a&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject) :::tip See also [What does the Scheduling Time Threshold mean?](/doc/what-does-the-scheduling-time-threshold-mean-what-impact-does-it-have-within-the-system-XIGJg5uwv8) Find step-by-step guides for **System manager**-related processes on our [System - How to](/doc/system-how-to-jhrHFUlkwJ) pages. ::: --- **Documents** - [User Guide](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/user-guide-WPv4VxhtWB) - [FAQ](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/faq-YoxOQOjvnY) - [Training Videos](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/training-videos-D2ycsEwqPt) - [Module Introduction Videos](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/module-introduction-videos-I6OQ6H7SUT) - [Release Notes](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/release-notes-BcFFMsc0RV) - [Distance Learning with LearningSpace](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/distance-learning-with-learningspace-eAfwW23Hxg) - [Preventing Copy-Paste in LearningSpace](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/preventing-copy-paste-in-learningspace-sPD0IIUuk0) - [Important Technical Notification Regarding Adobe Flash Player](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/important-technical-notification-regarding-adobe-flash-player-eQtMLwLmTJ) - [iPad support - Technical information](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/ipad-support-technical-information-dLmeFvKofC) - [TeamViewer Link](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/teamviewer-link-QyKZBMqUT9) - [YouTube videos about LearningSpace](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/youtube-videos-about-learningspace-TMb3zdc0LC) - [Customer Aftercare One-Pager](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/customer-aftercare-one-pager-GBWMe1BcfS) - [Case Studies](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/case-studies-VcAbFqXSz7)
