Hi there!
To sum the time taken if the date has already passed, you can use the
SUMIFS function in Excel. Here's how you can do it:
- Select an empty cell where you want to display the result.
- Type the following formula:
Formula:
=SUMIFS(D11:D376, B11:B376, "<"&TODAY())
- Press Enter.
This formula will sum the values in column D (time taken) if the corresponding date in column B is less than today's date.
Let me explain the formula in more detail:
-
SUMIFS: This is the function that will sum the values based on the criteria you specify.
-
D11:D376: This is the range of values you want to sum.
-
B11:B376: This is the range of dates you want to use as criteria.
-
"<"&TODAY(): This is the criteria you want to use. The "<" symbol means "less than", and "&TODAY()" means today's date. So, the formula will only sum the values in column D if the corresponding date in column B is less than today's date.
Hope this helps!
