I have a list of date+times and a count for each, eg:
Date/Time Count
6/19/12 3:00 AM 1
6/19/12 4:00 AM 1
6/19/12 5:00 AM 79
6/19/12 6:00 AM 322
6/19/12 7:00 AM 275
6/19/12 8:00 AM 143
I would like to graph based on hour but when I select the data and graph it excel groups all the hours in the day together. I would like to see the trend as time passes. What do I need to do?
Format the axis as a Text axis - Excel wants to format it as a Date axis, which has a minimum resolution of 1 day
I did some testing and what I did was plot the graph using the data that I had then changing the format of the date column to general number which gave me my trendline and then changing the format of the horizontal access datevalues in the chart to the date format. There must be an easier way though this works for now. Using Excel 2010.

I have dataset of date and hours. I need to remove data before 06:00 and after 18:00 to each day. Is there any formula to do that automatically in excel?
If you have Excel 365 you can use the FILTER-function - together with the MOD - logic to retrieve the time part of a date. (you will find a lot of explanations about this topic on SO - 0.25 equals to 6:00 and 0.75 to 18:00):
=FILTER(tblData,(MOD(tblData[Date],1)>=0.25)*(MOD(tblData[Date],1)<=0.75))
I named my table tblData and the field that I am filtering on is Date. You might have to adjust this.
Its excel-2013. I have some data points as below.I want to be able to show the start time, finish time of a particular job for a specific date in a excel sheet. And i want to do it for ~30 days of a month. But when i plot it using simple line chart, its not detecting and plotting the exact the 'start time' in Y axis. Can you guide me here , how i can do this?
Date Start Time Finish Time Duration
1-Jan-20 1/2/2020 2:48 1/2/2020 7:12 4.4
2-Jan-20 1/3/2020 2:34 1/3/2020 8:25 5.85
3-Jan-20 1/4/2020 3:14 1/4/2020 9:04 5.84
4-Jan-20 1/5/2020 1:19 1/5/2020 5:50 4.52
5-Jan-20 1/6/2020 2:29 1/6/2020 6:39 4.16
6-Jan-20 1/7/2020 2:14 1/7/2020 8:22 6.15
I tried to use line chart but in that the Y axis i.e the start time value is converted to number automatically. And even formatting that to the time data type is not helping.Its coming something as below.

It sounds like you're describing a Gantt chart. Those are used for project management. Excel doesn't have a simple way to make Gantt charts. (MS Project is another Micro Soft application, and it does.) But I did find a link to an Excel template, and there are other templates our there as well. Just search "Excel Gantt".

To compute the travel time (across two points) over a period of time, I was logging the time at which I crossed the sub-points between the two main points. My ultimate aim was to prepare a line chart which would show the trend of the journeys, and then find out where I have lost time and where I have gained.
My time entries are in the below format
Day 1|Day 2
09:55|09:35
10:01|09:37
10:06|09:42
10:09|09:45
10:12|09:49
10:15|09:51
10:22|09:58
10:28|10:08
10:35|10:18
10:38|10:21
10:48|10:31
I drew the chart with the time series appearing on the y axis (with journey points on the x axis). But Excel has some logic to determine which time values should be shown in the y axis. How can I force excel to only show the time values which I want to be seen? For example in the above case I actually need time stamps like ;
09:00
09:15
09:30
09:45
10:00
10:15
10:30
10:45
11:00
How can this be done? Thanks in advance.
Found the answer. On the Axis there is a provision to set the Min, Max values, and Major and Minor points on the axis.
For the Min and Max values, divide the hours you wish to see by 24. Example, if the starting time should be 9AM, then 9/24 = 0.375 should be given as the Min value. If 12 noon should be the max value then 12/24 = 0.500 should be given as the Max value. For the Major point, in case the intervals have to be of 15 mins the formula to be used is (15/60)/24 = 0.01041.
I am trying to create a graph in excel (thinking about a scatter graph) with two variables. I have day of the week and and time of day. I would like Day of the Week to be on the Y axis and Time of Day on the x-axis. How can I achieve this?
You need to format the day values as dddd as mentioned in the comment. Here's an example. I have chosen the numbers in the Day column so that if represented as a date they start from Monday.
I also fixed the min and max of the y-axis to 2 and 8, and the min and max of the x-axis to .125 and .75 (because each hour=1/24 of a day so to get an exact number it's easier to work in multiples of 3 hours or 1/8 of a day).
I have created a dynamic chart to show frequency of an event depending on the time of day.
I have data classed by date and time:
DATE TIME UNIX TIME RUNNING JOBS
28/11/2013 11:30 1385634600 1
28/11/2013 12:00 1385636400 1
28/11/2013 12:30 1385638200 1
...
12/12/2013 11:00 1386842400 1
12/12/2013 11:30 1386844200 1
12/12/2013 12:00 1386846000 0
I have created a dynamic chart and used Running Jobs mean as x-axis value and time as y-axis value:
I would like to centre my plot on 00:00 in order to make it more readable:
I didn't find a way to do it with the dynamic table/chart.
Is there another way to do it (except to copy the dynamic table values and sort them by hand)?
Thanks you.
