Default How do I convert time to the nearest 1/4 hour with a 7 min. window

I am creating a timesheet that totals daily as total hours/ minutes worked
(4:06). We round to the quarter hour (up or down) based on the 7 minute
window.
4:01 to 4:07 would be paid 4 hrs. - 4:08 to 4:15 would be paid 4 hrs. 15
mins..

Can EXCEL do this or will I have to calc. manually?

THANKS

To round a time to the nearest 15 minutes, you can use this formula:

=ROUND(A1/TIME(0,15,0),0)*TIME(0,15,0)

The time is entered (or calculated) as hh:mm in A1
