    Question TIMESHEET - time calculation for multiple jobs type

    Hi

    Have a look at the attached timesheet.

    I'VE ATTACHED WRONG FILE, SORRY GUYS. CORRECT FILE IN POST #4

    I want to be able to calculate times I have spent doing different jobs types.
    There are 5 job types MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, INSTALL, EXTRA WORK and OFFICE WORK and i would like automatically summarise time spent
    on each TYPE of job at the bottom in cells D20, D21, D22, D23, D24
    So I need to find a way for Excel to add all hours I have spent doing MAINTENANCE for example.

    I think that the way to do that is to use a formula that would look for word MAINTENANCE in column J and then add all the hours from column I for the rows with word MAINTENANCE. After adding all those hours the summary would be displayed in cell D20. And then to do same for other types of jobs.

    I just simply haven't got a clue how to do that.

    I will be grateful for any help!

    Try Toggl.com - free workflow tracking and basic reporting in csv. Also has an app for your phone.

    Might be better than reinventing the wheel.

    Hi smarczak

    Welcome to the Forum!!!
    Did you attach the correct File?

    I see no reference to this in your File...
    There are 5 job types MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, INSTALL, EXTRA WORK and OFFICE WORK and i would like automatically summarise time spent
    on each TYPE of job at the bottom in cells D20, D21, D22, D23, D24
    Or this...
    I think that the way to do that is to use a formula that would look for word MAINTENANCE in column J and then add all the hours from column I for the rows with word MAINTENANCE. After adding all those hours the summary would be displayed in cell D20. And then to do same for other types of jobs.

    I've uploaded wrong file kersplash. Corrected in post #4
    I have been looking at templates from various sources but none of them uses formula I need and I can't figure this out on my own unfortunately.

    you need to set custom format on your mobile:
    for Duration: d.hh:mm:ss
    for Start/Finish: hh:mm
