Location tracker based on time

Hi Community,

 

Can you please help me understand how can I filter out on Min/Max time  based on locations. Please see the scenario below and find attached excel and package workflow for reference. Thanks in advance. 

 

Scenario: 

There are only two entrance doors a person can use to get into the premises. (HMGBR5_Main_IN & HMGBR5_SNEAK_IN). Similarly, there only two exit doors. (HMGBR5_Main_OUT & HMGBR5_SNEAK_OUT). 

  • Batman - Batman is a shift worker start in the middle of the night and finished in the morning. Even though he used SNEAK_IN & MAIN_IN doors but his Start Time will be 12:22:57 a.m. for 13th Sept 2020 as he used that does to come in at the first instance on that day. His finish time is  9:59:55 a.m.
  • Charlie - Charlie is a shift pre-grave shift worker starts at 16:16:15 p.m. on 13th September 2020 and continues to work until next morning. But, technically he did not finish on 13th Sep 2020. So, below is the desired outcome for him. 

Desired output: 

One card number/name per row per day as per desired output tab in excel

Hi @grazitti_sapna 

 

I went through the solution but it does not look right. 

The data looked all right until Crosstab (27). I tried swapping start time and finish time at the end select but that didn't work/

Screenshots attached for reference.  

Can you please have a look again? Thanks

 

The End Result should be ass per below for example:

 

Potential Case Card NumberPotential Case NameCompanyCase DateStart TimeFinish TimeEntry GateExit Gate

HMGBR5_Main_OUT

Hi @grazitti_sapna 

I had a look at the solution but the end result do not match. 

The data looked fine until crosstab (27) but after text to columns it doesn't match the expected outcome. 

I tried swapping Start & Finish time in the end SELECT tool but that was also giving me incorrect results. 

Can you please have a look again?

Thanks,

Hi @grazitti_sapna 

 

Many thanks again and much appreciated. 

The issue looks fixed for Batman & Charlie. But when I look at Taylor, it looks weird. 

Since Taylor did not arrive through either of Main_IN or Sneak_In door the desired output for Entry should be Null just like Charlie has null for exit gate and finish time. 

 

Attached screenshots for reference. Thanks again.

So sorry to be a pain!

But now it looks like data has gone missing. Example Darren - Came in on 12th Sept but data is not there 😞
