Creating a shift work calendars

[Tony Shoebridge]

Attempting to setup a shift calendar that starts at 7pm
and finishes at 7am the following day. MSP doesnt accept
the start date cause it thinks it is later than the
finish.

Any suggestions.

Tony, assume M-F 7PM-7AM no break (for simplicity's sake):

Monday: From 7pm, To 12am.
Tues-Fri: From 12am, To 7am; From 7pm, To 12am.
Sat: From 12am, To 7am.

Note:

Mon only shows the hours actually worked on Mon (7pm-12am).
Tues-Fri have two From entries (12am, 7pm) and two To entries (7am, 12am).
Sat shows the hours left over from Fri (12am-7am).
