Hi @DevtoSME 

 

Greetings!!

 

OOTB, if a change has conflict, the conflict status turn in conflict and then use can go to conflict tab and see the other changes / BW / MW. 

 

If it not work for you, then you need to compare the plan dates with schedule date which is not a good choice, reason begin the plan dates store HH: MM: SS as well, and compare with dates only can be a big customization.

Hi im not seeing the message at the top in your screenshot. i have a ticket that wants a message to be displayed. is this an OOTB feature? Also 

 

for this statement "when you need to compare the plan dates with schedule date which is not a good choice, reason begin the plan dates store HH: MM: SS as well, and compare with dates only can be a big customization. " what would be the customization. I'm trying to make a blackout date and change request collide so i can see the conflict status issue but I'm not able to se an error. is this achieved by a schedule entry?

Atul: I will not 100% it is customization but yes, it will increase technical debt.

Atul: To do , we need compare the plan dates with Schedule entries one by One. and then it will show message. We can do , but I will recommend go OOTB as per screenshot.
