Hello,
I would like to create 5 minutes slots based on start and end time ie. from 9:00-17:00 -> 9:05 (next row) 9:10 etc. Is it possible to do this using Generate Rows tool without date inside?
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Pawel_Paleczny even if there's no date in your dataset, I think you'd always need at least a dummy date with the time element to use DateTimeAdd(). You could just place a Select afterwards and change the datatype to Time in order to drop the date:
@Pawel_Paleczny The DateTimeAdd () function works with the DateTime Field (both date and time), it will not work only with the time field, that's why the dummy date is included along with the time field. Do you see any issues adding the dummy date along with the time field for calculation?
From my perspective it's working perfectly however Client intention is to prepare minutes interval without any dummy dates to avoid any potential confusing :)
@Pawel_Paleczny Even though the dummy date used in the formula but it will not reflect in the output, the output will give only the time
The assumptions of the project make it necessary to take into account not only the output but also the entire workflow, which will ultimately be managed by less technical people, so I would also like to avoid including the date :)
