    Adding Times over 24 hours w/ Dates

    I'm having some trouble with adding times in excel. I'm completing a time study for my company and we want to track how long our entire process is for our the customers. Below is a sample of my spreadsheet:

    Customer Check-in Time Check-in Date Total time for Customer Customer Check-Out Time
    8:50 1/11/2014 9:25 18:15
    14:07 1/12/2014 27:00 ???

    I use a formula to add the check-in time with the total time to calculate the check-out time, as you can see in the first row. My question involves the second row. How do I add the check-in time with the total time, since the customer was here for more than 24 hours? When I try to create a pivot table with all the data, I'm given the 1/1/1900 date. I figure this is because the total time is more than 24 hours. Any suggestions on how I can add these times? I was thinking about adding a check-out date column for these types of scenarios, but not sure how to do that.

    Thanks for your help!

    Use a custom cell format [hh]:mm for hours exceeding 24.

    Re: Adding Times over 24 hours w/ Dates

    Thanks for that suggestion. Now I'm thinking of adding a column for "Check out date" for these instances when time exceeds 24 hours. Is there a formula to auto-add a calendar day when the time exceeds 24 hours? There are hundreds of rows, so I'm wondering if there is an easy way to add a calendar date rather than going through one by one.

    I suggest you post a sample workbook. Ideally, mock up what you are trying to achieve.

    It's difficult to see from your example what you want.
