Time Duration

I am struggling with measuring time a duration.  I have a calculated column called Planned Duration - which is short time format.

 

I have included the column code below.  Can you please tell me how I would amend it so that 30 minutes.  The issue I have at times is that if the planned entry was before midnight and then the exist is after midnight, my calculations get mixed up.  Please can someone help

But whay the date is the same? It should be next day for the exit. You need to fix the data from the source. Otherwise how can we tell if this is rows is good and that row is bad?

Your right - I will go back to the source and then look at the requirements when I start again.

The day is the same because the planned visit should be 23:30 and leave the visit at 00:00.  The day would change if the exist time was 00:01.  The data is a SQL import from a Care System.

 

The Planned Duration (highlighted yellow) should say 00:30 instead of 23:30 .    The Planned Entry Time Date and Planned Exist Time Date are from an SQL Import .  I need to create a column for time format and digital format for the Planned Duration (Planned Exist Time Date -Planned Entry Time Date) but when the entry time is near midnight the calculations go wrong.

 

Im sorry if I was unclear.
