Calculating networkdays & working hours
Hi,
Some time back, someone with much more Excel knowledge than I have posted a formula on this site to help me work out the number of working hours between 2 dates/times - the time an e-mail was received and then answered. The formula I'm using is: =(NETWORKDAYS(A2,B2)-1)*(I$3-I$2)+IF(NETWORKDAYS(B2,B2),MEDIAN(MOD(B2,1),I$3,I$ 2),I$3)-MEDIAN(NETWORKDAYS(A2,A2)*MOD(A2,1),I$3,I$2) A2 = date/time received B2 = date/time answered I3 = end of business day I2 = start of business day I've come across a situation that this formula doesn't seem to like and that is if the response date is more than 2 business days after the receipt date. The example I have is: Received: 27/03/2007 12:08:00 PM Answered: 30/03/2007 11:42:51 AM This returns a result of 01:04:51 work hours (no publc holidays). If I change the received date to 28/03/2007 12:08:00 PM, I receive a result of 16:34:51 which is correct. Can someone help with this as I don't understand the original formula well enough to work on an enhancement? :o) Any help you can offer is much appreciated. Scott |
