I'm getting a #NAME? error when I use this formula. I'm entering"

=(SUMPRODUCT(--(WEEKDAY(ROW(INDIRECT(INT(O222)&":"&INT(AE222))),2 )<6),--ISNA(MATCH(ROW(INDIRECT(INT(O222)&":"&INT(AE222))) ,PublicHolidays,0)))-1)*(WDEnd-WDStart)+IF(AND(WEEKDAY(AE222,2)<6,ISNA(MATCH(INT( AE222),PublicHolidays,0))),MEDIAN(MOD(AE222,1),WDE nd,WDStart),WDEnd)-MEDIAN(AND(WEEKDAY(O222,2)<6,ISNA(MATCH(INT(O222), PublicHolidays,0)))*MOD(O222,1),WDEnd,WDStart)

Should I be inserting the start or end date where you show WDEnd and WDStart
as well? I did try that and it didn't seem to help. Thanks in advance for
your assistance.

This formula will work when StartDateTime and EndDateTime are any time, even
at weekend, evenings etc.

Hello Olly,

Can you confirm exactly what your requirements a

Do you need to exclude holidays?

Are your start and end times/dates always within business hours or might
they be outside these (i.e. at evenings, weekends, holidays)?

This formula will calculate business hours between your start and end
times/dates

=(SUMPRODUCT(--(WEEKDAY(ROW(INDIRECT(INT(StartDateTime)&":"&INT(E ndDateTime))),2)<6),--ISNA(MATCH(ROW(INDIRECT(INT(StartDateTime)&":"&INT (EndDateTime))),PublicHolidays,0)))-1)*(WDEnd-WDStart)+MOD(EndDateTime,1)-MOD(StartDateTime,1)

notes:

Result cell should be formatted as [h]:mm. If you want the result in decimal
number of hours, e.g. 64.5 rather than 64:30 then multiply entire formula by
24 and format result cell as number

StartDateTime and EndDateTime should be within business hours [if you can't
guarantee that then this can still be done but you need a more complex
formula]

PublicHolidays should be a single column or single row range

No. Your formula does not give the exact same results as the networkdays
function...

Olly,
NETWORKDAYS, as far as I know, does not calculate time, only days. The
formula I gave you could replace the call to networkdays in your
formula.

Does this help?

I'm confused now. That formula gives me a number of days between 2 dates,
as
long as there is no time entered.

So I replaced A1 with INT(A1), A2 with INT(A2) - and it almost gives me
what
I want, overall. But it doesn't take the available hours of a working day
into account.

Anyway, moving on...

The formula I have so far is:

=IF(AND(INT(StartDateTime)=INT(EndDateTime),NOT(IS NA(MATCH(INT(StartDateTime),PublicHolidays,0)))),0 ,IF(INT(StartDateTime)=INT(EndDateTime),((EndDateT ime-StartDateTime))/(WDEnd-WDStart),MAX(networkdays(StartDateTime+1,EndDateTi me-1,PublicHolidays),0)+INT(24*(((MOD(EndDateTime,1))-(MOD(StartDateTime,1)))+(WDEnd-WDStart))/(24*(WDEnd-WDStart)))+(MOD((MOD(EndDateTime,1)-WDStart)+(WDEnd-(MOD(StartDateTime,1))),(WDEnd-WDStart)))/(WDEnd-WDStart)))

StartDateTime is a cell containing the start date/time value.
StartDateTime is a cell containing the end date/time value.
WDStart is a cell containing the start time of a working day
WDEnd is a cell containing the end time of a working day
PublicHolidays is a named range containing the dates of holidays (to be
excluded from count)

This works, perfectly - gives me exactly what I want as an answer. What I
am
trying to do is replace the NETWORKDAYS function in the above formula, so
I
can distribute the formula to users who cannot use the Analysis ToolPak.

How about...

=A2-A1+SUMPRODUCT(--(((WEEKDAY(ROW(INDIRECT(A1&":"&A2)),
2)5)+ISNUMBER(MATCH(ROW(INDIRECT(A1&":"&A2)),holi days,0)))0))

I've consultedhttp://www.cpearson.com/excel/DateTimeWS.htmandmodified
the
formula accordingly - so far so good! But this still relies on the
NETWORKDAYS function from the Analysis ToolPak. How can I rewrite this
formula to avoid the networkdays function?
