I have the following formula
DATE(YEAR(E687);MONTH(E687);DAY(E687))
and I want to use the TIME function as well. E.g:
DATE(YEAR(E687);MONTH(E687);DAY(E687)) - Time(10;0;0)
The reason is that I have guys working on my Excel sheetfrom CAT and PST
I am getting a date from the server and if a PST user adds data I want to minus 10 hrs from the server date to ensure I get the correct data in CAT.
I know my date above only shows date and not time but I want to remove 10hrs so see if it was done the previous day or the same day.
As comments on post suggests make sure your excels separation symbol e.g ; or , - Check regional settings.
Worked!

so everyday I receive sales data from the previous day. So today November 15 I have data from July 2021 until November 14 2021. What I want is to show this data for the current month by aggregating by day. I use a quicksight visual with a MTD (Month To Date) filter. Everything is fine so far.
The problem is on each first date of the month, I see "No Data" on my visual which is normal since I do not have any data from the current day/month but as I said earlier from the day before.
So what I want to achieve is:
Each 1st of current month: show data from the whole previous month
From 2nd to last day of current month: show data from the current month
Can someone help me please to know how I can achieve this?
I looked for ways to do this and I found dynamic default parameters but this option is not fine with me since I have to fill a username column according to the documentation (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/quicksight/latest/user/parameters-set-up.html) and I have many users so it will be not interesting to list all of them.
You can assign parameters to a group rather than a specific user which is much quicker
There is new functionality which allows you to set today or beginning/ending of month/quater/year as default.

I have a Microsoft List that has a column called Expiration Date (text in format of MM/DD/YYYY) and Point of Contact (text in format of email#domain.com). How do I create a flow that sends an email out to the Point of Contact 3 months in advance?
My idea was to create a scheduled cloud flow that:
Repeats every day
Looks at every row in specific list
Compares if Expiration Date - 3 Months = Today
If True, send email to Point of Contact
I am currently stuck on step 3 to compare the date. I did Subtract from time to subtract 3 months from Expiration Date but now I do not know how to use this value to compare to today's date.
A better approach is to filter the list by using an OData filter. That will result in a list with all the elements you need.
For doing so, you need to specify the "Filter Query" field (in red):
First type
ExpirationDate eq ''
Then, between the quotes, add an expression, and select the functions addDays and utcNow in the following way:
addDays(utcNow(),92,'MM/dd/yyyy')
Please notice the following:
I'm adding 92 days to get the same day three months in advance for today (today is Oct 18th, so I'm looking for Jan 18th). Maybe adding just 90 days would work for you.
If you just want to add 3 to the month, you would need to get today's date to a variable with utcNow('MM') to get only the month, add 3 to it, and then create the expression accordingly.
I'm sorry the UI is in spanish. I'm from Mexico. But it's the same idea.
In the image, it reads "ExpirationDateText" because that's the way I named the field in my example. In your case, "ExpirationDate" should work.
I'm working on an excel 2010 sheet where I mark down the date and time an event happens. The date is in one column, and auto formats to 17-Nov when I would type in 11-17 (I was fine with this). The time is in a separate column.
I am trying to find the average time an event occurred, without regard to the date, so I would use =AVERAGE(C1:C10). However, I only receive a date back (like 17-APR).
I did not format the cells before I began to enter in data, and I would simply type in a 3:27pm event as 1527, and no reformatting would happen.
Now, when I attempt to reformat the column to hhmm, all the numbers entered so far turn to 0000. When I try to edit the 0000, it is formatted as 6/13/1906 12:00:00 AM.
What I want to do is have the time formatted as hhmm and not include a date in the cell, and be able to run formulas on it, such as the average time an even occurred.
Summary:
*Currently time is entered simply as ####. I entered 3:27pm as 1527.
*Trying to reformat the time column results in 0000 in all cells in the column that previously had a ####.
*Modifying the 0000 displays as 6/13/1906 12:00:00 AM
*I want to format the time as hhmm so I can simply type in 2357, and have it display as 2357, but understand I mean 11:57pm, and let me take averages.
*Hell, even being able to enter 1547 and have it auto format to 15:47 or 3:47p would be great.
Thanks for reading my question!
An easy way to apply an autoformat (though Excel won't see it as a true "Time") is to go into Format Cells>Custom> and use ##":"##. This will turn 1245 into 12:45. Mind you, this will be a text string so if you copy it to another cell and then apply a time, it will show as 12:00:00. Excel will also not be able to run formulas on it, but it's a quick and dirty way to make it look pretty.
Another option is to have a formula such as =TIME(LEFT(A1,2),RIGHT(A1,2),) where A1 would be replaced with the cell you are actually referencing. This will convert the number to a time that Excel will recognize as a time allowing you to run other functions on it, but requires another column.
If you are entering the times as 4-digit numbers, you'll need to do a calculation to get the hours and minutes, then use the TIME function to get an actual time:-
=TIME(A1/100,MOD(A1,100),0)
Another way is
=LEFT(A1,2)/24+RIGHT(A1,2)/1440
but then you have to format the result as a time.
Excel sees a number like 1547 as approximately 4 years on from 1st January 1900 if you format it as a date, so it will come out as something like 26/3/1904 in UK format or 3/26/1904 in US-style format.
Note that the time function can only give you values up to 23:59:59 (stored as 0.999988426), but the second method will give you a datetime value with one or more days as the whole number part. This can be useful if you want to do calculations on times spanning more than one day.
The above behaviour is because dates and times are stored as real numbers with the whole number part representing days and the decimal part representing fractions of a day (i.e. times). In spite of misleading information from Microsoft here, dates actually start from 31/12/1899 (written as 0/1/1900) with serial number 0 and increment by 1 per day from then on.
I have an emulator in eclipse.
Did i need another things?
Excel stores time internally the same way as date - i.e. 1 equals one full day, namely January 1st, 1900. Thus, one hour is 1/24. Assuming that only the time was entered into the cell (and not a full date with a time), you could therefore use this formula:
=IF(U7>16/24+50/(24*60),U7-(16/24+50/(24*60)),0)
Alternatively, you could use Excel's TIME function, which converts hours, minutes and seconds into an Excel time:
=IF(U7>TIME(16,50,0),U7-TIME(16,50,0),0)
In case your input cell is a full date with a time, you need to either get rid of the date in the input value - or add the date to the comparison - though I'd recommend the former:
=IF(TIME(HOUR(U7),MINUTE(U7),SECOND(U7))>TIME(16,50,0),U7-TIME(16,50,0),0)
Go through the following article, I hope this will help you.
compare time in excel
You should compare time in following way -
U7>TIME(16,50,0) inside the IF condition.
Please make sure that the column U7 which you use as time input, should be in proper Time format.
Thanks.
We are using a custom list on Sharepoint where we require users to enter data with a date and time field. We have been facing huge issues in data validity when generating reports due to this field. Following are the kinds of mistakes:
Selecting AM instead of PM or vice verse. Changing to 24 hrs format doesn't help much because then the users select (as an example) 02:00 instead of 14:00 for 02:00PM.
There are errors regarding formats of dates, hence some entries have dates from the future or the past.
As the reports are generated each week, the list needs to be populated by the end of the week. If the month has changed between the week, people forget to change the month in the calendar and the entries are of the last week of the current month instead of the last week of the previous month.
Are there ways to configure the list(Pref. without programming) so that:
A. Only working hours are available in the time related dropdown.
B. Dates from the future are not allowed( Or not available)
Any help would be appreciated.
As far as I know, you won't be able to satisfy these requirements with no custom code.
If you decide to go down the coding path, what you need to do is create a custom field type. Let me know of you need help on this.
