Hi all,

Working on a spreadsheet which shows telephone calls:

F column is Start time of the call (e.g. 21/05/2024 12:30)
J column is End time of the call (e.g. 21/05/2024 12:35)
K column is duration of the call in minutes and seconds (e.g. 5m 20s)

Is there a way to work out how many calls took place concurrently at the same time as each call based on this data?

Thanks in advance!

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.

Can you share a sample of your data? THe xl2bb add in (link below) is a great tool that really supercharges you helping the forum help you. If you cannot use that, then please post your sample data as a table.

To answer your question, yes, there probably is a way.

Thanks in advance.

It looks like the seconds were left off, which makes the data a bit harder to work with. Could the format be changed to show the seconds, too?

Hi,

Thanks for your replies, really appreciate it.

@Fluff The above isn't quite right. I'm probably explaining what I'm looking for badly. That shows the amount of calls each call shares a time window with - but what I'm looking for it the maximum amount of concurrent calls that any call has (the amount of simultaneous calls that are occurring).

@awoohaw I'm using Windows 365.
Good point @Vogateer have included them now.

I'm using Windows 365.

I suggest that you update your Account details (or click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)

Can you post your expected results.
