I have products that have a 3 year shelf life from date of package, I've got:
Col A: code of product.
Col B: date of package.
Col C: expiry date.
Col D: I would like to construct an if statement which will state:
Condition 1: that if expiry date (Col C) is less than current date (today()) then to display "expired by x years, y months and z days" with reference to the current date - using pearson's DATEDIF formula:
"Expired by "&DATEDIF(C2,TODAY(),"y")&" years "&DATEDIF(C2,TODAY(),"ym")&" months "&DATEDIF(C2,TODAY(),"md")&" days"
Condition 2: that if expiry date (Col C) is greater than current date (today()) then to display "in date - x years, y months, z days left to expire" I'm unsure as to how to construct the second formula - as it will be a countdown date difference from the current date to the expiry date? Final if statement will be:
If(C2<=Today(),formula for condition 1 as shown above,formula for condition 2)
It undoubtedly would, but don't hold your breath. Doing so would break tens of thousands of existing applications.
It would also make exponentiation the only operator that worked right-to-left. That alone would make things extremely confusing for non-structural-engineers.
Operator precedence and direction of application is neither correct nor incorrect - it's convention. And scientific convention is not the convention that Excel was designed for. A frequent example is
-x^(2*n)
XL will always calculate this as a positive number (for integer n's) since negation has a higher precedence than exponentiation. This seems counterintuitive to most of those that have commented on it in these groups. But it's consistent with XL's published specs.

Is there a formula to calculate the working days left in the current month? I work in the financial services industry and am putting together a spreadsheet to automatically calculate sales production needs per "working day", based on my businesses schedule.
We are open M-F and Saturday, not including holidays. Now, I can look at a calendar, count the days left and put them in to the spreadsheet, but I'd prefer to have it calculate automatically.
On my spreadsheet, I have used the =TODAY() formula. In the cell below, I would like to have it calculate the actual working days remaining in the current month.
Since today is Sunday August 19th, I know that there are 11 working days left (starting Monday 08-20-2007). Is there a way to get Excel to do that?
Our office has a vacation days accrual policy based on number of years worked. We have a vacation days number, based on year of employment, the employee earns monthly. I need help with a worksheet, formulas, to document each employee, the year of employment they're in, # of days they have available based on the current month (which would need to add up automatically as the year progresses), then any days they request off, and finally a remaining balance of days left.
I am trying to figure a way to search for a cell that has a specific date and time range. There are several cell titles pending on the activity. I want to find a cell that has a time ** 7:30-15:30 , 15:31-17:30, 17:31-20:30. The end result is to calculate the activity between those time periods based on the data cells.
Example
If the date searched time field ** the activity ranges is 1635 I need to split the time and credit the activity time in the 730-1530 time and the rest on the 15:31-17:30 time
I have been able to do it on a single labor group based on time alone, but when I try to add the DATE to it my numbers go null. Eventually i will need to add 11 labor groups daily for weeks at a time .
I have a raw of data consists of expire date. I would like the excel to control the first expire first out by highlighting the nearest expire date for each materials.
Note that for each materials there are several batch with different expire date. I want the excel to highlight to me which batch i should use first base on nearest expire date. And also highlight in different color if the batch had expired.
Example is attached. I had manually highlight suggest batch to use in yellow, and expired batch in red. How should i do it with formula? Perhaps with "conditional formatting"?
I.e. it will only work for a specified time and requires the author of the script to renew it at a given point?
I want to be able to do this to strengthen my position as an independent contrator financially...and copy protect my work from unwanted exploitation
Some ideas: 1-MSG box requesting a pre-defined password to renew the time for the script to work along with contact info for the author
2-Ability to define # of days, months and or years the script will work
3-Ability to define the # of days, months and or years that a MSG box warning of pending expiration will appear
4Ability to define the # of days, months and or years that the renew will extend the use of the script with multiple pre-defined passwords allowing different lengths of time extention! Perhaps an encryption method allows you to in another excel sheet (say the comfort of your own home) generate at will a password that will extend a scripts life for 3 months?! They contact you again, and again you generate a "random" password that will extend the original script
5-Anti-hacking measures, using MS's built in security
This might be a useful way of extracting monies over time, for the use of a script you provide....pre-set
I have an excel file with several worksheets and 1000's of lines of data.
Protection is already given courtesy of having to enable macros or sheets are hidden, and copying of data is not possible. It is however unfortunately possible to copy the excel file, therefore I would like to have code to to render the file inoperative if a date elapses. In addition since the file is password protected (as regards alterations - read only for others), I would like the clock to increment for example 7 days further every time the correct password is entered. In other words if the time period elapses simply entering the password will reset the clock and permit all users access for another week once the file is saved..
I am wanting to calculate the the processing time for an order that takes place within normal business hours and workweek. A normal day is from 8:00 to 5:00 If a task is started at 2:00 PM Monday and finished at 10:00 AM Tuesday then the result should be 5 hours as I do not want to include any time outside of normal hours. I can figure out how to subtract dates and times but not how to bridge a day(s). My data is somewhat flexible as I have not started the project yet. I can use separate cells for the times and dates or have two cells that use both incorporate the date and time (8/27/09 2:00 PM) for start and end time or any other idea.
I have a userform that time stamps on my userform as soon as i open the form, is there a way that when I submit, that the amount of time that I was on the call to be put in my column on my worksheet as minutes?
I am trying to use the Left function in my VBA code but continue to receive run time error 1004 - Method 'range' of object '_global' failed. Not sure if the error originates for code being written incorrectly or if the left function is not available in VBA. I am basically trying to take the first 9-characters for each cell in column K and copy the values to column G.
I recall a few years ago that I located a program that allowed me to create an Excel spreadsheet and share it with others, but that locked the spreadsheet after a given period of time. I need to create a spreadsheet, but I want to put a time frame on it which requires users to request an access code from me every so many days. I don't want users in my business to be able to take the spreadsheet and use it should they leave the company. I know there was a subscription program that allowed me to do this, but I can't recall the name of it. It also allowed Excel to hide all of the formulas, even though the calculations worked.
I have my Employees List in one Sheet and in another Sheet2 I want to Display those Employees Names and List whose Passport going to Expire in the dates entered in Sheet2 A1 and B2 Cell.
By the way ....D1 = start Date F1 = End Date E1 = start Time G1 = End Time
It's GREAT! But now I need include time from 6:00 a. m. to 10:00 p. m. (I already modified your formula:
(NETWORKDAYS(D1,F1)-1)*("22:00"-"6:00")+IF(NETWORKDAYS(F1,F1),MEDIAN(G1,"6:00","22:00"),"22:00")-MEDIAN(NETWORKDAYS(D1,D1)*E1,"6:00","22:00")) because are regular working hours in Colombia but:
1. All the days (Monday to Saturday) are working days 2. I just want to calculate the time in shifts, I don't specify the start date and end date. Example: 8:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Result: 2 hours, because 1 hour is after 10:00 p.m.
This are two different options, so I need two separate formulas.
I have to calculate the difference between the start time and end time of a job. The only catch is, how can I avoid calculating "out of hours" time. So, if a job goes from 9am to 9am the next day, I want it to avoid calculating between the hours of 23:30 and 03:30.
Another example is if a job goes from 02:00 to 04:00, I want it to avoid the tim between 02:00 and 03:00.
If there is a difference in days, so the job goes overnight, how do I take that into consideration also.
I've got a time difference from 8:00AM - 12:30PM as 4.30 I'm trying to get the minutes, .30, converted into a 6 minute increment, .5. Is it possible to do this and if so how would it be done? Below is a chart of how the time is converted from 6 minutes increments into decimal form.
I'm trying to devise a formula to produce "days in inventory" based on the following data:
Date In Date Out (which may be blank if cargo still here) Todays Date Days in Whse (which is the formula I can't figure out!)
It needs to work like this, date out - date in, unless date out is null. If date out is null, the result should be calculated based off of todays date - date in.
the vendor has a 21 hr working window; start from 7am and goes until 4am; Mon to Fri.
Here is a scenario: - i request for a product information from a vendor on 3-Feb-14 8:00am (Monday) - he replies with all of the product info on 6-Feb-14 12:00pm (Thursday)
can you find the time in above scenario consideration the working window?
Here is another scenario: - i request for a product information from a vendor on 6-Feb-14 8:00am (Thursday) - he replies with all of the product info on 11-Feb-14 12:00pm (Tuesday) - Sat & Sun are days off but keep in mind that my Friday shift ends on sat at 4am so the networdays formula wont work.
I need to calculate the time spent replying to my inquiries: I log the time I receive my inquiry as: 06/02/2009 09:23:00 in column A. I log the time I send my reply as: 07/02/2009 07:23 in column B. In column C, I need to put the Formula that will return the following result: 0 days 22.0 hours.
I have a 2010 excel sheet containing 14 columns and 45082 rows in total. I am quite illiterate when it comes to writing macros but I know that what I need can be achieved with a set of codes.
To be more clear, I inserted two tables below. The first one represents the current data structure, and the second one is the way I want my data to look like.
Current data structure looks like Variable 1 Variable 2 Variable 3
WHen I was a beginner at Excel, I came up with the following formula to calculate the time difference between two "time" values. Since I was too lazy to add a ":" between my hour and minute, I had decided to simply enter the start (column B) and end time (column C) as a military time (e.g., 0100, 1230, 1500, 1930, 2300, 2359). The following formula would be in Column D.
I am having trouble filling a formulae series to the left on one spreadsheet, the fomulae being references to another sheet.
For example, I have two sheets 'Mtce Options' and 'Base Case'. In 'Mtce Options' I have the following formulae
A B C 1='Base Case'!A15='Base Case'!D15='Base Case'!G15
I want to fill to the left, incrementing the column references by a factor of 2 each time, eg. next two should be ='Base Case'!J15 and ='Base Case'!M15.
However, if I autofill to the left by highlighting A1, B1 and C1 or just B1 and C1 all I get is an inappropriate reference such as ='Base Case'!D15 or ='Base Case'!F15, respectively, in D15.
how to find the average times of two different sets of groups. There are the baseline times and intervention times. Both groups have three subtopics: Time Fell Asleep, Woke Up, and Duration (how many hours I slept). I am not sure how to find the average of each subtopic. Here are the times....
I have a problem with a time card i am producing. I want to count hours and minutes worked and carry forward any surplus or deficit into the next week. I can do it if the hours do not total more than 24. I have attached the file and it is formatted in 1904 format.
I am staring at this excel spreadsheet blankly ... I am at a loss as to how to accomplish the detailed analasys but simple math this spreadsheet reequires.
The data consists of three columns pasted from a report that is exported as a .csv:
B Code C Start Time D End Time
The following analyses must be made on each row:
1. determine if the start time falls within the scheduled shift
