    Distribute Work hours, when the required Work Hrs are more than available Work Hrs

    Hello

    Please help me solve the issue mentioned in the spreadsheet(work allocation)

    I have 4 different tasks , each take 25 min , hence need 1 hr 40 min to clear all.

    The problem : I only have 60 mins

    catch :

    Task A -60% Priority
    Task B -25% Priority
    Task C-10% Priority
    Task D-5% Priority

    hence have to clear as many of them in the above proportion in 60 min

    Try, in X3 dragged down

    =MAX(0,IF(SUM($V$3:V3)<$V$9,T3,($V$9-SUM($V2:$V$3))/U3))
    This assumes your rows are set up from highest priority to lowest.
    Does that work for you?

    Hello

    Thank you for the reply , that was good and will help

    Could you help me further with the priority.

    For example out of the 1 hour of production total items than can be cleared (A+B+C+D) is "X" and the rest will be pending (have to touch base and work on all may be not complete all )

    I need to ensure 60% of "A" is cleared of the "X"
    I need to ensure 25% of "B" is cleared of the "X"
    I need to ensure 10% of "C" is cleared of the "X"
    I need to ensure 5% of "D" is cleared of the "X"

    Regards
    Ashish
