Hi, 

 

How to calculate Working days & time below  between two dates in days & total time.

 

04-11-2024 12:27:44   14-11-2024 14:44:05

 

9:30am to 7pm - Working hours

7:00pm to 9:30am - Non Working hours

Sunday - No days

 

in attached sample you can use "Created On" & "Closed date time"

You can use this formula
DateTimeDiff(dt1,dt2,u)

U can be days, hours, minutes etc.

Do not forget to transform the data to be a datetime format, as this will not work with strig

From date you can get the days, and then deduct the weekends.

Hey @shahnawaz_khan 

 

Working hours are a bit tricky. My approach is to generate every minute between the start and end times, and then filter out the non-working ones. 

You can then count the minutes, and divide by 60 to find the hours. This obviously explodes your data. You could generate the hours, but I wanted the fidelity of data to account for start and end times not lining up perfectly with the working hour boundaries.

Hope that helps,
