Calculate Hours of a selected Month In a Duration

Hi

I have a table with durations that looks like this:

 

Name

Start

End

James

31/01/2018 14:25:00

01/02/2018 21:29:00

Antonio

12/02/2018 10:59:00

17/02/2018 1:13:00


I want to filter by Month and get the number of hours of the selected month in each duration.

How can I do that?

 

Thanks.

Well, I think that the right answer is to unpivot your Start and End columns so that you end up with:

 

Name,Type,Duration

James,Start,31/01/2018 14:25:00

James,End,01/02/2018 21:29:00

Antonio,Start,12/02/2018 10:59:00

Antonio,End,17/02/2018 1:13:00

So, do you want the difference between Start and End or ?

Sorry. I don't need the difference between the two dates.

 

If you can see the first record in the table has a period spanning from January to February. I want the hours from January only. How can I do it?
