Timothy, What you're asking is pretty tricky... ----------- TECHNICALLY, you cannot START an action on a Saturday and END it on a Sunday of the SAME WEEK, unless you "assume" that the week begins on Monday (instead of Sunday) And... for your row 11, the start time is AFTER the end time. -----------------------
Networkdays does a nice job of counting the working days (less holidays) between two dates. But it gives the result in whole days, not partial days. so, in the date range in which only 2 hours is within the Business Hours, it still calls it (1) "working day". I think, with all of the criteria you have to meet, you're going to have to create a "user defined function". (VBA macro) If you don't want that approach, then you're probably going to have to add several columns. (1) with networkdays * BusHours/Day another that checks to see if the start date is a weekend or holiday and use this to subtract from the busHours. Same thing with the end time. We MIGHT be able to come up with something.. but it's gonna be ugly... How do you want to approach this?

I have attached an excel spreadsheet with certain dates, and the answers that I am looking for. I have also attached a holiday list and the workday start (6:00 AM) and work day end (9:00 PM). If an action is started on Saturday and ended on Sunday (of the same week), I want the calculation to return "N/A" (or something that I can identify that should not be considered when measuring performance). However, if an action is started on a Saturday and ended the following Saturday (without any holidays in the middle), I want the calculation to return 75.00 (business hours). Essentially I want to calculate elapsed business hours between two dates while disregarding weekends, holidays, and "after-hours" AND if it turns out that NO business hours took place during those two dates, I want the calculation to return an easily identifiable text field like "N/A" for example. ALSO, and this is important, if an action was started and ended at the exact same time (WITHIN NORMAL WORKING HOURS), I need the calculation to return 0.0 and NOT "N/A". I've included a few other examples in my spreadsheet that have stumped me. I can find a calculation for 1 of them, but yet to find 1 calculation for ALL of them. Hope I was clear, if not please feel free to ask any follow-up questions.
