How to visualize occupancy over time

[lammec01]

I have a basis excel file where per machine I have the start and end time of when it was "in use". I need a timeline (per hour) with the occupied time per machine. For example if a machine was in use from 11u45 till 13u30 ... it was in use 15 min (from 11u), 60 min (from 12u) and 30 min (from 13u). If I can transform my date like that I can visualize this in a bar chart. Any ideas on how to transform my data?

Thanks for the response.

I am however missing still some data.

Machine 1 is in use from 10u00 till 11u30 and from 14u00 till 16u15.

I should get result like this

10u --> 60 min occupied

11u --> 30 min occupied

14u --> 60 min occupied

15u --> 60 min occupied

16u --> 15 min occupied

In your solution I am missing 15u timeslot.

Hi @lammec01 ,

You can split two column with "u", and then pivot them.

Repeat the operation for Column3.

Duplicate it and append them.

Pivot:
