Calculate extra hours

I have one table contains the following information for the start and end time of working hours of an employee

 

DateStart TimeEnd Time
1-6-20208:35 AM7:46 PM
2-6-20209:38 AM6:03 PM
2-6-20208:48 AM7:06 PM

 

and I have two what-if parameters

one for From and the other one for To

I choose the value of them based on the working hours

e.g I can change the starting working hour for that employee let's say from 8 AM and the end time for his working hours 5 PM

 

but these parameters contain only numbers (no time format)

 

how can I calculate the total extra hours for each day

I put your example data in and made two What If parameters - StartTime and StopTime (with values from 0 to 24 hours).  If that is correct, you can use an expression like this to calculate the total overtime hours.  Note this subtracts the difference between the two parameters from the time difference for the shift each day.

 

Total Overtime =
VAR selectedduration = StopTime[StopTime Value] - StartTime[StartTime Value]
RETURN
SUMX (
Shift,
VAR overtime = ( Shift[End Time] - Shift[Start Time] ) * 24 - selectedduration
RETURN
IF ( overtime > 0, overtime, 0 )
)

Hi @amaniramahi ,

 

Not sure why do you need WhatIf parameters.

 

To calculate Extra hrs you can create a measure

 

Extra hrs =
var shift_time = 9
RETURN
DATEDIFF(Max('Table'[Start Time]),MAX('Table'[End Time]),HOUR) - shift_time
 
 
Change the shift time as per requirement.

I think this does not give me the correct answer.

in rows, extra hours are 2,2, and 0

but the total is 1

how come?
