    HI rocky09,

     

    You can try to use below calculated column formula to calculate valid working hour:

     

    Work Hour = 
VAR filtered =
    FILTER (
        ADDCOLUMNS (
            CROSSJOIN (
                CALENDAR ( [ACTIVITY_DATE], [LASTMODIFIEDDATE] ),
                SELECTCOLUMNS ( GENERATESERIES ( 9, 18 ), "Hour", [Value] )
            ),
            "Day of week", WEEKDAY ( [Date], 2 )
        ),
        [Day of week] < 6
            && [TicketID] = EARLIER ( Table1[TicketID] )
    )
VAR hourcount =
    COUNTROWS (
        FILTER (
            filtered,
            (
                [Date] >= DATEVALUE ( [ACTIVITY_DATE] )
                    && [Hour]
                        > HOUR ( [ACTIVITY_DATE] ) + 1
            )
                && (
                    [Date] <= DATEVALUE ( [LASTMODIFIEDDATE] )
                        && [Hour]
                            > HOUR ( [LASTMODIFIEDDATE] ) - 1
                )
        )
    )
VAR remained =
    DATEDIFF (
        TIMEVALUE ( [ACTIVITY_DATE] ),
        TIME ( HOUR ( [ACTIVITY_DATE] ) + 1, 0, 0 ),
        MINUTE
    )
        + DATEDIFF (
            TIME ( HOUR ( [LASTMODIFIEDDATE] ) - 1, 0, 0 ),
            TIMEVALUE ( [LASTMODIFIEDDATE] ),
            MINUTE
        )
RETURN
    IF ( hourcount <> BLANK (), (hourcount*60 + remained)/60, 0 )

Hi rocky09,

 

>>I guess, the first column may have greater date than modified date. Is there a way to dealth it

It means your table contains records which start date greater than end date. Datediff function not support calculated with records who have greater startdate(compare with end date).

 

You can add some conditions to ignore calculation when 'start date' greater than 'end date'.

 

Notice: DATEDIFF(start date, end date, unit)

Hi, 

 

I tried the formula above and I get the error message "The start date or end date in Calendar function can not be Blank value". Any way to resolve this?

 

Thanks
