Hello all, thank you for your curiosity and help. I am a beginner at excel and need help creating a formula at work. Here is the what im up against:
Column B (staffed Time), Format 8 hours = 8:00:00AM=formated 8:00:00
Column E (break time), formated(15 or 30 minutes depending on shift)=12:30:00am= 0:30:00
Column M (expected time) (time on phones if perfect +feeding unused breaktime back into expected time (eg 8 hours shift - 30 break = 7.5hours = 7:30:00am = 7:30:00 or 8:00:00-0:30:00. ( if only used 10 minutes of break of 30 total put 20 minutes back into expected time so that 8:00-0:30:00+0:20:00 = 7:50:00. & also if possible add in any overages from staffed time, If they log in 5 minutes early make that staffed time 7:35:00 assuming 30minutes of break, but no underages if they are late tough. Tough huh? I was using cells to reference different employees shifts eg 8 hours & 30 minute breaks or 4 hours & 15 minute breaks. I have different books for each employee & column a is just dates of each day of the month. Help me if you can. Ask me questions. Would like to know by tomorrow if possible.
Just running windows xp & excel 2003 sp3. I came up with a partial formula =IF(E3>=$M$40, $M$41, ($M$41)+($M$40-E3)) but it didnt work with the staffed time overages & also filled in days that were blank as if they worked 8 hours. I just deleted them but if we can get it to not fill them great.
