I am creating a time & motion study and want to compare the actual time 'turning spanners' compared to other unproductive tasks.
I have created a time log database of all tasks in the working day (similar to below).
| Task | Start Time | End Time | Time Delta (minutes) |
| Housekeeping | 7:30 | 8:00 | 30 |
| Time on Tools | 8:00 | 9:50 | 110 |
| Travel | 9:50 | 10:00 | 10 |
I want to show lost times based on the below logic
Start work (7:30am) - Break (10:00am) maximum time on tools = 150min
I need a card visual showing the total amount of time on tools in the above period and a table summary of the lost time
Example:
Card = 110minutes
Table = House keeping and Travel summary
Many thanks,
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
According to the information you describe, you can add a judgment condition to the original formula. I did a test, the reference is as follows:
Col_ =
IF (
HOUR ( 'Table'[End Time] ) = 10
&& MINUTE ( 'Table'[End Time] ) <= 0,
TRUE (),
IF ( HOUR ( 'Table'[End Time] ) < 10, TRUE (), FALSE () )
)
If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and let me know immediately. Looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,
Henry

Sounds good. What have you tried and where are you stuck?
Hi,
Thanks for your response. I have tried creating a custom column to generate a true of false column using the below DAX
Two options. Either remove the equal sign
7AM-10am = HOUR(dilo_master[end_time]) >= 7 && HOUR(dilo_master[end_time]) < 10.00
or consider the minutes as well
7AM-10am = HOUR(dilo_master[end_time]) >= 7 && HOUR(dilo_master[end_time])*60+MINUTE(dilo_master[end_time]) <= 600.00
