How to add two time fields (24 hour format) in Alteryx ? Please help

AbhirupMukherjee09

Hi everyone, I am looking for an easier solution on how I can add two time fields in Alteryx, For Example  -

Time1                 Time2

09:00:00            00:10:00

10:15:00            00:45:00

12:40:00            00:30:00

 

So I want to add these two column and get my final column as 

Time3

09:10:00

11:00:00

13:10:00

 

How can I get this result ? Help please

Hey @AbhirupMukherjee09, here's one way you could go about achieving this where you parse out the hours/minutes/seconds of Time2 and individually add them to Time1. I've added an extra row to show all 3 working at once and correctly ticking over midnight:

The only 'standout' thing to mention is creating a *dummy* DateTime to be able to use the DateTimeAdd(), hence the '1900-01-01 '+
