Create time slot

Create time slot

Hello, I have a question here, thank you very much in advance.
I would like to identify a column of dates within a band, so for example if my column K is between 07:00:00-13:59:59:59 it would be called "MATINAL", if it is between 14:00:00-16:59:59:59 it would be called "SOBREMESA", etc.

But don't know how to do it

I would appreciate any light on this matter

 

Thanks anyway

    The values in columns J and K are left-aligned. suggesting that they are text values, not real time values.

    Try to convert them to real time values.

    And the lookup table in columns N to P should be as in my sample workbook, with NOCHE at the top.

    I'd use Data > Text to Columns to split the time ranges in column K into a start time and end time.

    Same for the Horario Franja values.

    Will each range in column K always fall entirely within one time slot? If so, you can use INDEX/MATCH or XLOOKUP.

    See the attached sample.

      Yes, it will fall inside the band, I'm trying to apply it in the same way you indicated but it doesn't work the same, I don't know if it's because of the format of the cells.

       

      'm not receiving the correct result
