Conflicts on zoho project Tasks

Conflicts on zoho project Tasks

Hi
We want to use ZOHO Project for scheduling our technicians.
We have maintenance contract with our customers.
We schedule interventions on customer sites.
So we created projects for each contract and task for interventions.

So if a technician need to go to customer I create task and schedule them after depending of availibility.

When I need to assign a date I use start Date and due date on the task.
But I realized there is no conflict management. I called support and they told me it is not developped.

BUt in my case it is a big problem because someone can not be in two places at the same time.

It there any workaround ?
Does someone use ZOHO project to schedule consultants and found a solution?
Thanks a lot.

This way, we can carry the to-do lists with us for the meetings and refer when we are offline. The print option, available at the right side of the page, allows the users to print the project information across all the modules. However, this option failed to print all the tasks & milestones

We designed this in-order to make the task edit across the product to be the same. Let it be in Feeds, Tasks & My Tasks tab, Calendar & My Calendar tab, a click on the task title will open the popup and user can edit the values. Customers pointed us the inline editing was very useful to them & how much they miss that in 4.0. Based on the feedback, we have rolled out this enhancement.
