Using Boolean statements with DateTime

I'm trying to add labels to timestamps.  I would like any time from 04:45 to 16:44 to be labeled DAYS for day shift.  Any time from 16:45 to 04:44 to be labeled NIGHTS for night shift.  I was able to get my formula to work for 05:00 to 17:00 because I only entered hours.  Now that I want to add minutes my formula does not work.

 

DateTimeHour([Date and Time_Act])

 

DateTimeMinutes([Date and Time_Act])

 

IIF(([Hour_Act]<4 AND [Minute_Act]>44)
OR ([Hour_Act]>16 AND [Minute_Act]>44),
"NIGHTS","DAYS"))

Hi @adarchuk 

 

I think you have an extra parenthesis at the end. Try this

 

IIF(([Hour_Act]<4 AND [Minute_Act]>44)
OR ([Hour_Act]>16 AND [Minute_Act]>44),
"NIGHTS","DAYS")
