I need to work out a formula to count down a 24hours clock example
Start time end time time elapsed Time remaining Time clock 24 clock runs out
19/10/22 - 00.55hrs 19/10/22 - 12:05hrs 12hrs 00 mins 12 hrs0 mins 20/10/22 - 00.55hrs
28/10/22 - 1500hrs 28/10/22 - 2100hrs 6hrs 00 mins 6 hrs 0 mins 28/10/22 - 2100hrs
30/10/22 - 1700hrs 30/10/22 - 2100hrs 4hrs 00 mins 2 hrs 0 mins 30/10/22 - 1100hrs
31/11/22 - 1700hrs 2 hr 0 mins 31/10/22 - 1900hrs
This will continue for a further 4 lines of code to.
Each entry is linked to the previous entry to count down the 24hrs clock
Does anyone know how to write this formula please
thanks
Hi!
Unfortunately, I can't understand what you want to count. Describe in detail what result you want to get from your data. As it's currently written, it's hard to tell exactly what you're asking.
i'd like to start a count down of hours left - 3000 hours minus what cell B2 shows. Can you please share how to do this?
much appreciated.
Hi!
Excel stores times as numbers. Use normal value subtraction.
I recommend reading this guide: Calculate time in Excel: time difference, add, subtract and sum times.
thank you!! :)
I have a report that gives seconds and I need an excel formula that will display that as HH:MM:SS - Anything over 86400 displays improper number of hours. Thanks
Hi!
Did you use the [h]:mm:ss time format as recommended in the article above? How many hours do you get and what do you want to get?
Go it - Divide by 86400 and format as {h}:MM:SS -
Hi, I've date-time format like 15-03-2020 01:50, Now I want to display the time as 13:50 and so on.. the problem is these times are autogenerated and don't have AM or PM. How I need to accomplish.
Hello!
The date and time format you are using is set here: Control Panel - Time & Language - Region - regional format data. Change the time format here as needed. Also, take a look at the article: How to change date format in Excel and create custom formatting.
I hope I answered your question. If something is still unclear, please feel free to ask.
Thank you very much for explaining this topic in a very simple way!
This helped me alot. :)
Hi,
Iam working in aviation field, because of that i need to calculate the larger values in hours.
For eg: 12346:00 - 12345:00, I know that answer should come as 1 hour.
Instead, its showing as "#VALUE!".
Please suggest some formulas for the same.
Hello!
Unfortunately, Excel does not allow you to enter more than 4 characters in the number of hours. Your values are written as text.
Thank you for that,
Is there any other way to track these hours calculation.
For example, if the current value is 12345:6 hours, but after each flights these values need to be updated.
Thank you in advance.
Hello!
You can get the number of hours from a string using the formula -
=--LEFT(A1,SEARCH(":",A1,1)-1)
The number of minutes can be extracted by the formula
=--MID(A1,SEARCH(":",A1,1)+1,10)
Here is the article that may be helpful to you: Extract number from text string.
Hi, I have same issue, working in aviation and want to add/subtract aircraft flying hours/mins using excel e.g
52166:40 - 52163:49
I see your previous response above but dont understand how extracting th number of hours and minutes is the solution. Please advise if there is a way to do this calculation and show correct results in hh:mm format .
Hi!
Split the text into 2 cells as described in this tutorial: Split string by comma, colon, slash, dash or other delimiter.
Then, in each cell, use the formulas described in the comment above.
Hope this is what you need.
Hi,
Please suggest formula to get working time beyond 24 hrs. Like in time 5:50 am in 21st jan, Out time 8:24 am next day. I need a formula which display total working hrs like 27 hrs 34 min.
Hi!
Try to carefully read the first paragraph of this article above.
Hi is there any error in my message? which article you are suggesting? please share the link
Its not working. calculation includes midnight span.
IN TIME OUT TIME TOTAL WORKING TIME
5:50 AM 8:24 AM 2:34:00
I NEED TO PLAY 27[H]:34 [MM] in total working time cell.
I used =IF(BN7>BO7,BO7+1,BO7)-BN7 this formula but its not working beyond 24 hrs.
Hi!
As far as I can see from your second comment, your task is now different from the original one. To get a difference of more than 24 hours, you need to use the date and time, not just the time.
Is there a formula to take total hours worked in a year but only change the format for minutes to a decimal?
Ex: 574:40 ([h]:mm cell format
convert to 574.67 hours
* I want to keep the hours the same but convert the number after the : to a decimal
Thanks
Hello!
Use the TEXT function to get the number of hours and the MINUTE function to get the number of minutes.
=(LEFT(TEXT(A1,"[h]:mm"),SEARCH(":",TEXT(A1,"[h]:mm"))-1))+MINUTE(A1)/60
This should solve your task.
i have clock in and clock out as am to pm in one row like wise for a week ,i need to add total no of hours for that week FOR EXAMPLE
ram
9:30AM-2:30PM
3:20PM-9:40PM
1:30PM-9:50PM IN THIS WAY PER WEEK
HOW TO USE FORMULA PLZ HELP ME.
Hello!
To convert text to time and find the difference, use the formula
=TIMEVALUE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(MID(A1,SEARCH("-",A1,1)+1,50),"P"," P"),"A"," A")) -TIMEVALUE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(LEFT(A1,SEARCH("-",A1,1)-1),"A"," A"),"P"," P"))
Then you can find the sum of these values.
I have a spreadsheet with accrued vacation leave and accrued floating holiday totals available. I need to let the employee know how much time they have to use by the end of the year so they don't loose any time. They can carry over 160 hours into the new year. Currently one field is formatted as text and the other total is formatted custom ( [h]:mm;@)
Hi!
Your description assumes that I know your details. But I don't know what "floating holiday totals" means, which field is formatted as text, and what is written in it. Describe in detail your data and what you want to calculate.

Hi,
How to filter data between date and time range as below:
From Date:
To Date:
From Time:
To Time:
I have four criteria to extract data from that.
Please advise.
Kiruban
Hi!
Write down the date and time in separate columns. To separate time from a date, use the formula
=A1-INT(A1)
To filter the values you want, use these guidelines: Excel Advanced Filter – how to create and use.
I hope my advice will help you solve your task.

Hello!
To convert seconds to days, hours, minutes and seconds, use these formulas:
days (in G3)
=INT(E2/(60*60*24))
hours (in H3)
=INT(E2/(60*60))-G3*24
minutes (in I3)
=INT(E2/60)-G3*24*60-H3*60
seconds (in J3)
=--RIGHT(E2,2)
I hope it’ll be helpful.

Hi,
To convert the text 0345: 56: 34 to time, convert the text to a number. For example, if this text is written in cell A1, use the formula
=--A1
Please check out this article to learn how to convert text to number with formula and other ways.
Sir I have used the formula it is giving the result #Value. Please provide your email I'd so that I can send file to you sir. Or please send me an email so as to send the file to you sir.
Hello!
Use the following formula:
=IF(LEFT(A1,2)="00",--MID(A1,3,20),--A1)
Please note that 0101:34:66 is not the time. There are no 66 seconds.
I am looking to identify the total minutes for the following that has been split into days, hours, minutes, seconds: in the format of 01:04:56:05
01 - in theory 24 hours
04 - 4 hours
56 - minutes
05 - seconds
I should be able to see: 1736 minutes
Hello!
To convert hours into minutes, you must first multiply the specified time by 60 (the number of minutes in one hour), then by 24 (the number of hours in one day). In other words, we need to multiply time by 1440.
I believe the following formula will help you solve your task:
=TIMEVALUE(MID(A1,4,20))*1440+60*24*(--LEFT(A1,2))
Hope this is what you need.

Hi excel specialist
How can I change from excel format from 24-00 to 24.00. what is the formula
Pls. advise thanks in advance hope to hear from anyone.
Hello!
I recommend that you study the recommendations on how to change the time format in Excel.
I hope this will help, otherwise please do not hesitate to contact me anytime.
Setting up a time card, I have 9 columns, 3 sets of IN time and OUT time. I can get columns to add up using a 24 hour format when it's a low vs a high hour such as IN:0600 / OUT:1600 for a total of 10 hours. However, what I can't figure out is how to formulate In:2000 / OUT:0600 for a total of 10 hours as the amount of time worked was 10 hours.
I know out how to get it to auto sum hours worked when I format the cell (mm/dd/yyyy h:mm) but that over populates the time card and makes it a lot harder to read. Is there a way to auto calculate the total hours worked using (h:mm) and auto sum the 3 column sets into a single total hours worked regardless of what day and time they clocked in?
My crews work 24 hour rotating shifts logging between 8 to 14 hours at a time. They also check out between the start and end of the shift and have to clock back in.
For Example; IN-19:00 (Begin Shift) OUT-24:00 (30 Min Meal) / IN-00-30 OUT-0330 (30 Min Rest) / IN-0400 OUT-0600 (Time to go Home) Total time worked: 10 Hours
I want to set up a time card they can just put in the time they clock in and the time they clock out to simplify their lives. It'll also help keep from displaying unnecessary data for our finance clerk and speed the processing of payroll up.
Hello Rick!
If the end time is longer than the start time, then you need to add 1 day to their difference
=IF(A1 > A2,A2-A1+1,A2-A1)
If you need the number of hours to be more than 24, use the custom format [h]:mm:ss.
I hope this will help, otherwise please do not hesitate to contact me anytime.

Hi,
I have a data dump from a scheduling system that displays the time in excel as follows:

Hello Stan!
If the end time is greater than the start time, the following formula should work for you:
=IF(B3 > B1,B1-B3+1,B1-B3)
To the start time you need to add 1 day.
I hope it’ll be helpful.

I need to subtract dates and time where the numerator is MM/DD/YY HH:MM (military time, cell = O8) is in one cell and the denominator is in two separate cells one for date (cell = A8) the other for time (cell = W8).
Very useful and helpful explanation and information.TQ
I have 4 machines, which run for few hours in a shift,I note down the number of hours of breakdown/ idle time (In hours) for each machine individually. At the end i want to calculate run time of "all the machines combined" by subtracting the " SUM of idle times of all machines" from 32 hours.
Please suggest a suitable formula/ technique for the same
Hi I am trying to create a time sheet that displays elasped time between start time and end time. I have times that cross over 24 hours, where the end time is smaller than the start time. I have been using =mod(end time - start time,1). However this does not work when subtracting a smaller end time from a start time on another date. Is there one formula that I could use for all types of subtraction of time that would also capture the smaller end time - larger start time crossing over 24 hours?
I am trying to show my kid when he improves in his swimming times. It is all good when he improves. Formula works great. But, if he did not improve the formula does not work. For example: last month it took him 00:36.55 (milliseconds) to swim 50 yards. This month it took him 00:35.70. So, he improved 00:00.85.
But, if the numbers are opposite and he did worse the formula will not give me the negative number I am looking for. 00:35.70 - 00:36.85 = -00:00.85
All cells are formatted mm:ss.00;@
Is there a way to show a negative number in time when deducting?
When I use custom format to represent times greater than 24 hours, the [h]:mm:ss displays 575:00:00.
Why the addition of 551 hours to the total?
Because the [h]:mm actually requires that you convert the total hours to DAYS.fraction. So take (calculated hours)/24. to display with [h]:mm format
this is a time related query.
when i do 23:59 - 23:30, i get an answer as 29 minutes formula=(b1-a1)*1440
when i do 00:15 - 23:59, i get a negative with same formula, this is the problem.
solution required = how do i get the number of minutes? which should be 16 minutes.
Look forward to getting a solution, thanking everyone for their inputs!

I have a question, If I have 01:40am and i want to minus 20:55:00pm what is the correct formula I need in order for it to see I have gone into the next day? I have tried and it will give me a -19... I need it to see that it is a 24hr period
Hi, I had a similar problem working with time. For 24 hours Excel stores this as 1 day, 0 hours. My solution was to convert everything to seconds and work from there. If you have formatted as days, multiply by 86400 (seconds in a day), if you have formatted as hours, multiply by 3600 (seconds) in an hour, etc.
Hi, i need help please. I have data that auto loads daily at 5pm. The process is broken into 2 parts (ETL1 and ETL2). ETL1 starts at 5pm till 11pm and ETL2 starts at 11 till 4 am. at 7 am i run a script to check if everything ran. each row has a start and end date time. i would like to flag all data after 5pm yesterday as todays data. Currently when i filter on today, i only see the rows where the date is after 00:00
