I'm not quite sure what to do here, I am new to the advanced formulas in
excel. I dont want the employees to have to enter anything but their time. So
in the formula =MIN(MAX(num_hours-37.5,0),2.5) what do I put in "num_hours"?

Ok lets say that their regular hours total 52.50 which is obviously 15 hrs
of overtime but there is going to be 37.5-40 hrs of overtime which is only
2.5hrs and then there is 40+ hrs which is 12.5hrs how do I make it to where
the 2.5hrs of overtime will hit the cell "a1" for example and the 12.5hrs
will hit cell "a2" automatically? I am not sure if I am explaining this clear
enough but I dont know how else to say it. Please Help!!!

I am trying to make a time sheet for everyone to be able to use in the
office. I want it to where when the total in Regular working hours reaches
37.5 it will put the excess working hours into another cell called of
course
Overtime. My dilema is not only this it is also that there are 2 colums of
overtime. There is overtime for 37.5 hrs to 40 and then there is a column
for
40+ hrs. Im so puzzled and confused I dont know if this is even going to
be
possible or how to even go about setting it up in a way that it WILL work.
If
anyone can please help me that would be so wonderful! If you want to see
the
document I have put together so far I can email it to you.

Thanks!
