Default help with project tracking

Monique,

The easiest way would be to have one sheet per project. If you have the
following headings in the row 3:

A3: Date
B3: Name
C3: Start
D3: End
E3: Breaks
F3: Total Time
G3: Rate
H3: Cost
I3: Week From
J3: To
K3: Weekly Cost


Then in cells F3 & H3:K3 the following formulas:

F4 =IF(AND(C4<"",D4<""),D4-C4-E4,"")
H4 =IF(F4="","",F4*24*G4)
I4 =IF(A4,A4-WEEKDAY(A4)+2,"")
J4 =IF(I4<"",I4+7,"")
K4 =IF(J4<"",SUMPRODUCT((A4:A1000=I4)*(A4:A1000<=J4 )*H4:H1000),"")

The in cell I5 enter the formulas:

I5 =IF($I$4="","",IF(MAX(A:A)=I4+8,I4+8,""))

and copy all the foumulas down as far as you require

The times in Columns C:E should be entered as XL time ie 10:15 or 10:15 AM,
(but note that there is a space between the 15 and the AM), and any times in
column E as 00:15

Post back if you have any further questions of or e-mail me direct if you
want a sample sheet.

Hi,

I work for an Architect and we have several draftsmen and draftswomen who
do
the drawings for us. Every client that comes in and wants us to do some
work
for them we assign it a project number. We dont always assign a certain
draftsmen or woman to work on any particular project from begining to end
we
have probably everyone of the draftspeople working on one project at some
time or another. I am trying to find the easiest and fastest way to keep
track of each draftsmens hours per project per week per our payperiod and
then calculate the total to charge the client at the clients rate per
hour.
i basically need to be shown or told how to set up my worksheets in a
workbook to tally all of this on one sheet per either client project
number
or by draftsperson. I hope I am making some sense about my objective.
Please can someone understand what I am trying to ask? Thank you I look
forward to someone's response.
