Description
Return signed actual-planned overrun and floor actual-planned-grace at zero for beyondGrace.
Personal health logs distinguish clock coordinates, elapsed durations, pauses, and missing time metadata. A supplied time comparison organizes records without measuring an activity or assessing its health effects.
Return signed actual-planned overrun and floor actual-planned-grace at zero for beyondGrace.
When to use this tool
Use Appointment Duration Overrun when you need one explicit diary-duration or clock-accounting component.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter plannedDuration, actualDuration, gracePeriod. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read overrun, beyondGrace. Use the output convention below.
Require nonnegative plannedDuration, actualDuration, and gracePeriod. Return signed actual-planned overrun and floor actual-planned-grace at zero for beyondGrace.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| plannedDuration | Planned Duration | Required. Finite number; minimum 0. |
| actualDuration | Actual Duration | Required. Finite number; minimum 0. |
| gracePeriod | Grace Period | Required. Finite number; minimum 0. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| overrun | Overrun | Required. Finite number. |
| beyondGrace | Beyond Grace | Required. Finite number. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- Durations share units; supplied grace does not establish scheduling rights, provider performance, care urgency, or clinical adequacy.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
