Hi @Arul ,
 I need that hours coulumn datatype as  decimal numbers because I need to add the sum of worked hours.
I already have workedMinutes column have data as 110 "Whole number datatype".
The hours column I need 1:50 as decimal number datatype.

In above mentioned thread they were in text datatype.

Thanks,
Pooja-B

 

@Pooja-B ,

If you requirement is to calculate the sum of hours, Can you try the below formula in measure?

Minutes to Hours = 
VAR _hours = ROUNDDOWN(DIVIDE(SUM('Table'[Minutes]),60),0)
VAR _minutes = MOD(SUM('Table'[Minutes]),60)
VAR _result = FORMAT(_hours,"#00")&":"&FORMAT(_minutes,"#00")
RETURN _result

Thanks,

Arul;

Hi @Arul ,
  Thank you so much for your response. Its working fine.
 But I need some exact answer sir.

I have 2 times here, 
                Minutes    Hours
                  220            3:40
                  225            3:45
Total Hours worked = 7:25
The above your given code, I tried in "calculated measure" its working in table visual but not working in the stacked column chart visual


Thanks,
Pooja-B

@Pooja-B ,
