Nebulas has added a straightforward safeguard to project access settings: if you set an end date earlier than the start date, the system now tells you immediately instead of letting the mistake through. It's a small addition, but for teams who manage who can view or work on a project, and for how long, it removes a common source of confused permissions and wasted troubleshooting time.

Validated access periods in project settings

Project administrators who define how long someone should have access to a project can now rely on a built-in check for date ranges. If you enter or edit an access period and the end date is set before the start date, Nebulas shows a clear validation message right away, so you can correct it before saving. This means access periods stay logically consistent, and administrators no longer need to double-check dates manually or discover the issue only when access doesn't work as expected.

  • Immediate validation message when an end date is set before the start date in project access settings.
  • Prevents saving an access period that would otherwise create a contradictory date range.
  • Gives administrators a clear correction point right in the access settings form, without needing to trace back the cause of a permissions issue afterward.

01

What changes for you

If you manage project access, you now get an automatic check that flags dates that don't make sense as soon as you enter them. There's no need to manually verify every access period before saving; the system does it for you.

This is especially useful when setting up time-limited access for external collaborators or team members with fixed deadlines, where a date mistake could otherwise go unnoticed until someone loses access too soon, or keeps it for too long.

02

Why it matters

An access period with reversed dates is a small mistake that can have real consequences: access denied by mistake, or worse, access that stays open longer than intended. Catching the issue at the point of entry, rather than after the fact, saves review time and reduces the risk of permissions being set up incorrectly.
