Rounding up time

Hey guys, I've got the following situation below and basically in the column where the time is, I need to round it up to only hours, if its above 40 minutes. So lets say its 15:30 then it displays 15, but if its 15:40 then it rounds up to 16 hours. Any way to achieve that by adjusting the code?
Any help appreciated.

You need to use the seconds as input for my formula, it converts it into time. 

I have attached your file with the column added.

Time rounded as expected:

Rounded Time = 
IF( MINUTE([TIME]) >= 40,  
    MROUND([Time], 1/24 ),
    HOUR([Time])/24
)

@Fowmy @mahoneypat This is what i get: Might be the reason that Im using charlie eidens duration and displaying time as a whole number.

My formula is based on Time data type column, if you have any other type, I need to do it differently.

You may share a sample PBIX file to check.

@Fowmy @mahoneypat  You will find my pbix file here: https://gofile.io/d/Vsei2l The column name is NewTIme

@Anonymous 

I modified the formula, you can try now:

 

Rounded Time = 

VAR T = TIME(0,0,[Time]) RETURN
IF( MINUTE(T) >= 40,  
    MROUND(T, 1/24 ),
    HOUR(T)/24
)

If you want to extract the hour as a number then apply the below formula and format it as the Whole Number

Rounded Time = 

VAR T = TIME(0,0,[Time]) RETURN
HOUR(
IF( MINUTE(T) >= 40,  
    MROUND(T, 1/24 ),
    HOUR(T)/24
)
)

@Fowmy Ive got it working now, however one of the drive time was 24:52 and when it rounds up it produces 1.

@Anonymous 

 

That is correct,  24 is midnight, 24:57 is next day 1am when rounded up. 

hope this clarifies

@Fowmy  Yes that does make sense, however I would need to display 25, as in my vizualisations im displaying hours, any way to adjust the code?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Try this formula.

Column = 
VAR x = FORMAT( [Trukmė Prastova Radviliškis Convert], "00:00")
VAR __right = RIGHT(x, 2)
VAR __left = LEFT(x, 2)
RETURN
IF(
    __right >= "40",
    __left+ 1,
    __left-0
)

@Fowmy  This does make sense, however, I need the column to be in the whole number format rather than time.

This is the code I use for my time. 

Trukmė Prastova Radviliškis Convert = VAR Duration = SUM ( 'Avg By Day'[avg_time] ) // There are 3,600 seconds in an hour VAR Hours = INT ( 'Avg By Day'[avg_time] / 3600 ) // There are 60 seconds in a minute VAR Minutes = INT ( MOD ( 'Avg By Day'[avg_time] - ( Hours * 3600 ), 3600 ) / 60 ) VAR Seconds = ROUNDUP ( MOD ( MOD ( 'Avg By Day'[avg_time] - ( Hours * 3600 ), 3600 ), 60 ), 0 ) RETURN Hours * 100 + Minutes

Please try a column expression like this to get your desired result.

 

Rounded Time = var hours = HOUR('Table'[Time])
var minutes = MINUTE('Table'[Time])
return IF(minutes>=40, hours +1, hours)
 
Regards,
Pat
