How do I Split time into shifts when it starts on previous date

How would I split/define the following work shifts

Example for Work Date - June 30, 2018

Shift times

  • 3rd; June 29, 2018 @  23:00:00 to June 30, 2018 @  06:59:59
  • 1st; June 30, 2018 @  07:00:00 to June 30, 2018 @  14:59:59
  • 2nd; June 30, 2018 @  15:00:00 to June 30, 2018 @  22:59:59

3rd shift is first

Did you every figure this out? I am having the same issue with a shift ending at 1AM and it is taking the start of the previous day.

Hi @Anonymous

Is this close to your goal?

3rd1 = CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE([date]-1,"@"),TIME(23,0,0))
3rd2 = CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE([date],"@"),TIME(6,59,59))
1st1 = CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE([date],"@"),TIME(7,00,00))
1st2 = CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE([date],"@"),TIME(14,59,59))
2nd1 = CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE([date],"@"),TIME(15,00,00))
2nd2 = CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE([date],"@"),TIME(22,59,59))

Best Regards

Sort of, however, I am trying to use that data to filter to a shift. 

 

Ex. a problems occured @

8/16/2018 11:15pm (which is our 8/17/18)

8/17/2018 02:00 am

8/17/2018 11:20pm

 

When filtered by day or shift the firse and second items should be 8/17/18 3rd shift and the third should be 8/18/18 3rd shift

Very difficult to say specifically without sample data. Please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

 

That being said, the HOUR function returns a number between 0 and 23 so that's probably your best bet.
