I am working on a staff schedule budget. I am trying to calculate based on budget and rate how may hours an employee can work. Here is the catch, while an employee may get a budget of $2889.00 at a rate of $15.00/hr which would give them 192.6 hours. However, since our timesheet system only accepts values in increments of 15 minutes the max that I could assign the employee would be 192.5 hours, Is there a way to rounddown to the nearest 0.25? So that in this case instead of 192.6 I would get 192.5; or if an employee would have 192.3 they would show up as 192.25 since it has to be based on the quarter of an hour.

Thanks in advance for you assistance with this issue.
