Thanks. I understand column N, but not columns O and P.
Can you explain what you want to calculate in column O and in column P?
- FatihaYahya93Feb 09, 2023Copper Contributor
column N = deduction from check in and start break.
column O = deduction from end break and check out.
column P = total of N and O (this is because i need to subtract the break time, cannot use basic formula as i need to set overtime 24 hours).
Actually, i found out the formula is accurate if i check in on 8:30 am and check out on 3:00 pm and upwards, however, the calculation will be false if i check out 12:00 pm and downwards. Would love to know the exact way to make everything correct.- HansVogelaarFeb 10, 2023MVP
Does the attached version work for you?
- FatihaYahya93Feb 12, 2023Copper ContributorThanks for trying to help me. I checked out, it doesnt work. Im sorry, but my problem is actually the calculation inaccurate if I put CHECK OUT 12:00 pm and downwards, but after 2:00 pm and above, the calculation is correct. If I CHECK OUT on 12:00 pm, the hour calculation will be 2 hours 30 minutes, but the actual calculation is 3 hours and 30 minutes. 1 hour deducted, but actually it cannot be deducted.
