Default Time calculation for attendance, tardy/late to work?

Try this equation:

=IF(B7-A70, "late", "ok")

eg:

Due time Start time result
7:00:00 6:58:00 ok
7:00:00 7:00:00 ok
7:00:00 7:00:01 late

Have your employee name (or ID) and dates as separate columns (better for
sorting etc.)

Format your A & B Columns as time (hh:mm:ss), you can subtract either one
from the other, but you have to ensure that you don't result in a negative
time, as Excel won't like it. (Lets be honest you can't actually have
negative time)

You could test the value of your subtraction for being greater than or
less than zero and get your tru or false that way.
