Engage Hours per day = ([Start]-[End])

    Hi HenryJS ,

     

    You could use Time.Hour() in query editor.

    if [Start]>[End] then
24-Time.Hour([Start])+Time.Hour([End])
else Time.Hour([End])-Time.Hour([Start])

    Here is the result.

    HenryJS try this expression

     

    Column = DATEDIFF ( [Column1], [Column2], HOUR)
