Dates adn times in excel

setting up a weekly timesheet

RE: dates adn times in excel

Hi Alison

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

Things that you might find useful in regards to setting up a timesheet:

1. If you are using this to calculate pay, formulas to add up hours and then calculate pay by multiplying total number of hours by rate. The SUM function can be used to add daily number of hours together; and * is used to multiply, e.g. =A1*A2 will multiply the values in A1 and A2 together.

2. Saving the timesheet as a template, so you can start a new timesheet each week. When you save the file, change the file type to Excel Template or Excel 97-2003 template next to Save as type when saving.

3. You may like to include protection in the template so that whoever is using it can enter in their hours and can't overwrite any formulas in the timesheet.

I hope this is useful.

Kind regards
Amanda

Excel tip:

Sum Up All the Values in A Column

If you want to quickly calculate the Summed values of all cells in a column in Excel 2003 normally you would use the SUM formula. (eg if you wanted to calculate the values in Column C rows 10 to 25) the formula would be:

=SUM(C10:C25)

However, if you keep adding values to column C you would keep having to modify the above SUM formula which can get quite annoying.

To get around this you can sum all the values in a column using the following formula:

=SUM(COLUMN:COLUMN)

Which, in our example, would be:

=SUM(C:C)

NOTE You cannot place this formula in column C, or else Excel 2003 will show a circular reference error.

The formula must be placed in any other column, EXCEPT the one being calculated.
