Calculate elasped time
I need a formula that will calulate the amount of elapsed time.
I'm tracking the amount of time the project took from one department to the next. For example... Job 1234 went in department A on 4/22/05 at 3:30 p.m. and left the department on 4/25/05 at noon. We work eight hour days (8am to 5pm) so the project was in department A for 5.5 hours. How do I subtract out the non-working hours? I've tried the networkdays and holidays functions, but they don't work. |
Working from 8 to 5 pm actually means 9 hours of actual work and not 8 as
mentioned by you below Assuming that this is the order your data is entered Col A - 4/22/05 Col B - 15:30 Col C - 4/25/05 Col D - 12:00 The actual work hours in col E thru this formula =(NETWORKDAYS(A1,C1)-1)*9+((D1-B1)*24) "natvsi" wrote in message ...

What granularity do you need? To the half-hour or to the minute?

To the minute.
