Since this app is catered to social workers we see that it might be rare for them to have the same appointment headings. Moreover, since they are aware that unique headings are required they can create simple workarounds like adding a number to their appointment, eg: meet alex1 and meet alex2, therefore this seems like not a huge issue, thus we recommend reducing the severity to Low.
[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]
Schedule restrictive naming validation
Details
We are not allowed to add schedules of the same title, however, it is common for us to have multiple same appointments at a different time, for e.g I visit the dermatologist every 3 months, but I can only have 1
Visit Dermatologist
schedule for tomorrow and not in 3 months time because they are thesame event
Steps to Reproduce
- schedule add h/Visit Dermatologist t/5/14/2024 0930 d/Discuss project details n/John Doe
- schedule add h/Visit Dermatologist t/9/14/2024 0930 d/Discuss project details n/John Doe (Error here)

:question: Issue duplicate status
Team chose to mark this issue as a duplicate of another issue (as explained in the Team's response above)
Reason for disagreement: [replace this with your explanation]
Using the command
schedule add h/House Visit t/2/14/2023 0930 d/Discuss project details n/Bernice Yu
fails because the heading is the same as another existing event. This is a feature flaw as the person, time, and other parameters are all different and unique.Heading should not be a unique identifier for an event as they are very common. If multiple people have the same common event for example "House Visit" or "Appointment" they will not be able to create an event. A suggested solution would be to use the Heading, Name and Date as an identifier instead
