Systems and methods for modifying time data in a time management system

Abstract:

Retrieving and storing time data in a time management system includes configuring the memory to store time records according to a configuration. The configuration includes: a plurality of time types, each of the time records referencing one of the time types; one or more collision groupings, each of the collision groupings being referenced by one or more of the time types; and one or more collision resolution items, each of the collision resolution items referencing an incoming grouping and an existing grouping. The method further includes receiving an incoming time record which at least partially overlaps an existing time record, the incoming time record having a first time type and the existing time record having a second time type. The method further includes performing a modification to the stored time records based on the incoming time record and the existing time record.
