Making Time Right
I need your help. I am doing a spreadsheet for my daughter. She needs to total up the hours of each of her servers(resturant).This is Monday to Sunday. I have it set up that i can get the total hours for each person but when she has someone start on the 1/2 hour it goes to the full hour. Example : if someone has 5 1/2 hours it gives me 6. The function i used is...=sum(e4,e10,e15,e20,e25,e30,e35). This works but when any one of the cells is in 1/2 hours it goes to the full hour. What other function can be used that will give me what ever time is entered? 1/2,3/4 hour. Sorry if this is not explained well. I am Really new at this. I find it interesting.

John,
What is the format of the cells your are summing ..is it hh:mm or decimal numbers i.e. 5.5 is 5 1/2 hours. And what is the format of the cell containing the sum? "John L" wrote: I need your help.

Hi,
You should set your cell format to 1 decimal point and key in 1/2 as 0.5 and 3/4 as 0.75 so you can solve your problem. Regards, Lim "John L" wrote: I need your help.

Thanks Toppers, I did not expect a reply so soon. I need to be at my daughters computer to answer any guestions. I will try and answer what i think you are asking, In the sum cell, since i thought i would be using full hours it is in full numbers. What should i format the cell as? As i mentioned if she uses full hours then it works fine. But she has people who start on the 1/2 hour. Maybe my problem is the wrong format in the total hours cell. Now your more confused, John L -- John L ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John L's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=34774 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=571777 |

Here is where i am at this time. I got it to do the .5 or.75 time thing. But what now is my problem is figuring out employee time. In cell ( A ) is start time. Amber is on row 3 In cell ( b ) is end time. In cell (c ) is name. In ( d ) is Hours. 5:00 PM - 11:00 PM - Amber- 6.0 This is ok This is what I have...=(b3-a3)*24 Using the above formula. If an employee starts at 5:00 pm and works till 11:00 pm it works fine. If an employee starts at 5:00 pm and works till 12:00 am it gives -17.0 If an employee starts at 5:00 pm and works till 1:00 am it gives -16.0 So what is my solution?
