Cannot remove last time log

[rbugajewski]

I have a time log that I cannot remove. When I right click on the entry and select “Delete” I get the following error message:

Updating time log would result in negative bookable time. Not allowed!

This is the last not booked time log entry. Shouldn’t I be allowed to just delete it? Could it be that there’s somewhere a comparison to < 0 instead of <= 0?

I am not exactly sure about this issue, but could it be, you already booked some time from this time log? I dont think you can book only a split time and delete the rest.

I’m not exactly sure what happened, but I was confused by the user interface. I solved this issue by changing the logged time from over 8 hours to 2 hours. Then I removed the entry completely.

I’m sure that there was some overlapping booked & logged time and it could be that I indeed already booked some time from that entry.

1. Why shouldn’t it be possible to book only some time from a log and delete the rest?
2. Why did the interface let me delete it after I changed the logged time? (I booked about 40 minutes, the interface didn’t let me change the logged time to less than that; after I changed it to 2 hours I could delete it nonetheless)

good questions, will implement something to deal with such cases

+1 this regularly happens to me too. Those partly booked time logs pile up at the top of my overview right now because I'm unable to delete them.

just a notice for me (or anyone else who wants to implement something to fix the issue): The wished behavior is actually implemented but it only works with linear splitting of timelogs. So, we should discuss about #168 and then implement a clean, working solution

This is fixed in the new version by forcing a 1 to 1 connection between logs and bookings.
