Caculation

Guest

With this expression my results are not coming out right. I am converting
seconds into hours. If i do not put in the -8 hours it is correct. Should I
use the calculation with the minus 8 hours in seconds first. What options do
I have?

Hours: (([TIMEINSECONDS]+900)/3600)-8

Any help would be appreciated.

Why are you subtracting 8 hours? Why are you adding 15 minutes? What options
are you looking for? Are you attempting to calculate over-time in a day?

Yes, I am calculating overtime. I am adding 15 minutes because where I am
pulling the seconds does not have 15 min. that is added to the employees
hours. I am pulling the people with hours worked over 8 adding the 15 min
than need to subtract the regular 8 hours.

Ok, so I don't see anything wrong with the exression. What do you mean by "my
results are not coming out right"? We can't see your data or your results or
what you expect.

When I put the -8 my results are always a negetive number. The results
should be a positive. Results end up being -7 0r -8 and so on. should be 1,
2 or some number in the positive.

I don't know if this will help but here is my SQL.

SELECT dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.PERSONFULLNAME,
dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.PERSONNUM, dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.EVENTDATE,
Sum(dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.TIMEINSECONDS) AS SumOfTIMEINSECONDS,
dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.LABORLEVELNAME3, dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.LABORLEVELNAME4,
Sum((([TIMEINSECONDS]+900)/3600)-8) AS Hours
FROM dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME
GROUP BY dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.PERSONFULLNAME,
dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.PERSONNUM, dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.EVENTDATE,
dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.LABORLEVELNAME3, dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.LABORLEVELNAME4
HAVING (((dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.EVENTDATE) Between [Beginnig Date] And
[Ending Date]) AND ((Sum(dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.TIMEINSECONDS))>27900) AND
((dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.LABORLEVELNAME4)="mc"))
ORDER BY dbo_VP_EMPCUREARNTIME.PERSONFULLNAME;
