Say you have a production planning with guys working with 4 different schedules :
A. 7:30 to 16
B 9:30 to 17h30
... etc
With standard sharepoint, you have to create two dates (begining and end), select they day twice, and type the hours each time.
You want to only write a date and select the time span :
Resolution :
Create a choice (C_schedule), prefix each choice with "1", "2", "3", etc....
Create a date field (D_work_date, without time),
and two calculated columns of datetime result: DT_work_start, DT_work_end
You'll make sharepoint fill those columns with basically, the start date + the hour(s) of your working day.
The formulas will be
#START TIME
DT_work_start=D_work_date+IF(LEFT(C_Schedule)="1";"07:30:00";IF(LEFT(C_Schedule)="2";"07:30:00"; ..... )))
#END TIME
DT_work_end=D_work_date+IF(LEFT(C_Schedule)="1";"16:00:00";IF(LEFT(C_Schedule)="2";"17:30:00"; ..... )))
Et voila! :)

Doesnt work with recurring events, sadly. In that case, only the starting date is stored, the dates displayed by the reccuring event are calculated on the fly by the view. Thus a calculated field isn't going to work there. Any tips appreciated.
