Decided to add 41 seconds to the Time_Now to be consistent with the output file.

 A bit frustrating to add 41 seconds to make it work, but still neat to do it all within one Formula tool.

DateTimeDiff(DateTimeAdd([Time_Now],41,'seconds'),[TIMESTAMP],'days')
DateTimeDiff(DateTimeAdd([Time_Now],41,'seconds'),[TIMESTAMP],'hours')-(ToNumber([Days])*24)
DateTimeDiff(DateTimeAdd([Time_Now],41,'seconds'),[TIMESTAMP],'minutes')-DateTimeDiff([Time_Now],[TIMESTAMP],'hours')*60
DateTimeDiff(DateTimeAdd([Time_Now],41,'seconds'),[TIMESTAMP],'seconds')-DateTimeDiff(DateTimeAdd([Time_Now],41,'seconds'),[TIMESTAMP],'minutes')*60

My solution using one formula tool.

 

Spoiler
DateTimeDiff([Time_Now],[TIMESTAMP],"days")
DateTimeDiff([Time_Now],[TIMESTAMP],"hours")-([Days]*24)
DateTimeDiff([Time_Now],[TIMESTAMP],"minutes")-DateTimeDiff([Time_Now],[TIMESTAMP],"hours")*60
DateTimeDiff([Time_Now],[TIMESTAMP],"seconds")-DateTimeDiff([Time_Now],[TIMESTAMP],"minutes")*60

Knew I had to use it but still had to go through the forums to see the utilisation of the modulo function! Thank you 🙂
