Logging Time in the past for a project opened today?

 When you go to log time on a task, the previous days are available to add time even if the project was just opened, I have checked the settings and don't see anything that relates to not allow this. Wondering if anyone knows of a setting/workaround to not let users log time on a project/task before the start date? Thanks!

Morgan,

There is no global setting or way to change this, it is how the product works and has worked for quite some time.  Does seem to be an oversight on how it was built but there is no way to stop someone from going backward to log hours if they felt like it.
