Searched for this everywhere and it isn't in the flatpickr options.
I need a way so the user can only select a date in 15 minute intervals.
For example: 12:00 12:15 12:30 12:45 .....
Any help would be great.
Thanks

Yes it is possible. flatpickr minuteIncrement option can be used to set increment intervals. Also, input time can be restricted between two values as given the example Time Picker w/ Limits.

imagine that i have a time for example 7:00 AM and also i have a duration for a task for example 12:30 (12 hours and 30 minute). when i subtract 7:00 from 12:30 it gives me ####### that the true answer should be 18:30 PM. what is the solution?
You were on the right path subtracting the two, but there are additional things you need to consider: A good description is on Microsofts help page if you scroll down to "Subtract" - this gives you a step by step guide and examples.

Excel cannot display a negative time. This can be solved by adding one day to the initial time.
=1+A2-B2
I'm looking to get a headcount of people available every hour within a time frame.
Employee
Start Time
End Time
Emp name
8:30 AM
10:30 AM
Emp name
8:30 AM
10:45 AM
Emp name
8:00 AM
10:15 AM
If I were to take a count of employees available at 9:45 AM, I should get 3. Or maybe I want 15 minute intervals and want to know my headcount at 8:15, which would be 1.
Currently my solution is to make a table for every hour in a day using the following formula to add a tally for every hour an employee is available:
=IF(AND($G9>=R$1,$G9<S$1),1,IF(AND(R$1>$G9,R$1<$H9),1,""))
And i get something that looks like this:
Start Time
End Time
8:00 AM
9:00 AM
10:00 AM
11:00 AM
8:30 AM
10:30 AM
1
1
Finally I can pivot this or countif it to get my total.
Is there a more elegant solution to this? Preferably one that allows me to change the interval but still gives me an accurate count. Even better if I don't need to build out the interval table.
I'm open to using VBA or formulas.
Overall, what is this problem called? I'd like to look up a pythonic solution on my own time for some self study.
If every line represents a different employee, then just use COUNTIFS:
=COUNTIFS(B:B,"<="&E2,C:C,">="&E2)
I am attempting to sum up hours per day across numerous fields. The issue I am encountering is when the sum passes 24 hour it defaults to 24 hour clock so 01:00:00 for 25 hours when actually I want it to show 25:00:00. Can anyone advise on this please? Many thanks,
Depends how your data is formatted - what happens if you change the custom number format to this:
[h]:mm:ss
The time is stored as a number by Excel and it will only show from 0 to 24 hours. If you format the cell as a number it should be 1.04 which Excel sees as 1.04 days and only uses the .04 when formatted as a time. Add *24 to your calculation and you will get 25.00.
It's a little more tricky to get your desired format hh:mm:as but I'll have a go and get back to you shortly.
I am attempting in creating an Excell page that determines the START time from multiple locations, from different time distnances to a single point.
Lets say that i have 15 start points from varying locations trying to reach a single destination. I am trying to set the arrival time as the end point and work backwords by using the destination time it takes. For instance, i want to coordinate a multiutude of units to converge at 11pm at night. I know that the first unit takes 5h30m, and the second takes 2h 45m to reach the same point at the same time. I would have to calcuate 11pm -5h30m = 5:30pm march srart for unit one, and 11pm-2h45m = 8:15pm for unit 2.
I have tried the subraction using the [h]:mm military script with subraction of the time to desitnation. All that has resulted is the difference between. ie 23:00 - 13:00 = 10:00 . But if the destinatiin time is 08:30 - 1300 all i get is #######. Where the first time is convergeance time and the 2nd time is march time.
I was able to get it to work if the comon convergeance time did not cause the march time to be before 00:01. And thats the crux , i cant seam to get it to work for a start time before midnight.
Any ideas ?
Use date and time, and not just times. You would probably also get an 'issue' around a daylight saving cusps so best to work in gmt through-out and convert from/to day-light-saving time (user time) for entry and display.
If you want to use times only then try using MOD function, e.g. with A2 = 23:00 and B2 = 2:45 you can use
=MOD(A2-B2,1)
and that will give you 20:15
......but it also works with A2 = 08:30 and B2 = 13:00....the same formula will give you 19:30
I'm creating a report which display duration of time (in hours) between two points in time.
e.g.
Duration between 10:00 to 13:30 equals 3 hrs 30 minutes
This information is being saved into a spreadsheet (excel) in one "duration" column, titled "Duration (hrs)". The column needs to be sortable to allow sorting by longest duration, etc.
Should this be displayed as 3.5 or 3.30 using a numerical column format? Or as 03:30 using a time format? Is there a standard for this or purely down to preference?
Appreciate your thoughts!
Thanks,
Andy
Note also that if you use "hh:mm" for your time format, that will just give you max 24, so even if it goes over several days, you won't see more than 24 hours. If you want the TOTAL number of hours, use "[hh]:mm" to see e.g. 45:32
I think it's probably just down to preference - either method should work and be sortable
For a time format you can just subtract, e.g.
=B2-A2
or for decimal just multiply by 24
=(B2-A2)*24
Personally I think that time durations should be kept in time format.....
