# Things to know about scheduling overlapping non-job events and jobs

## Overview

If you attempt to schedule a non-job event that overlaps with a job, a notification warns you about the conflict. You have the option to either move forward with the conflict or to resolve it.

### 

#### Who uses this feature

- Office employees
- Applies to all business types

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:**
> 
> - If you schedule non-job events and jobs to overlap, this could result in the technician getting paid twice.
> - If the overlapping non-job event is paid, the technician will be paid double hours. The technician will be paid for the non-job event hours and job hours, even if the hours overlap.

## Review the schedule conflict warning message

When you try to schedule a non-job event that conflicts with a job, a conflict notification appears. The notification text may slightly differ, depending on the type of conflict.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** Conflict notifications don't appear when non-job events or jobs overlap with technician shifts, regardless of the type of shift. Be mindful of Time Off shifts when scheduling events for technicians.

## If you want to continue with the schedule conflict:

Click **OK** when you see the notification. Remember, if the non-job event is paid, the technician will accrue paid hours for both the event and the job, even if the hours overlap.

The non-job event and the job will both appear on the Dispatch Board. The technician will see both the job and the paid non-job event in ServiceTitan Mobile.

## If you want to get rid of the schedule conflict:

Click **Cancel** when you see the notification. You'll need to reschedule the event or job, or assign a different technician.
