To-do list, appointment schedule, quote of the day, event reminder, priority list, and a space for notes. A list of quotes for each day of the year. A new quote of the day will appear on the 'Planner' worksheet each day. This worksheet is the 'control center' of the Excel file. You can apply the following formulas to add time with hours/minutes/seconds increments in Excel. Enter the start time into a blank cell (says A1), then select the following blank cells which you need to fill with increment time. Here I select A2:A15. What Grids 3 and 4 do is to give match-ups with numbered time slots, which you simply replace with the actual times. If there is an odd number of teams and you choose to do round robins rather than byes, the time slot needs to be three halves, designated on the third schedule as RR1, RR2 and RR3. Want to make a time schedule in Microsoft Excel partitioned into perfectly regimented 15-minute intervals? It's easy, provided you know how to go about it. And in this Excel tutorial from ExcelIsFun, the 543rd installment in their series of Excel magic tricks, you'll learn how to do just that using the Fill Handle.

This question is one that I have quite often when I do data analysis at my job :
I am very often working with data concerning time of arrival / time of departure of patients.
I want to do bar graph of the number of patients actually there during each one hour period.
Exemple :
Patient A arrival 8 am departure 12 am
Patient B arrival 10 am departure 2pm
I want a bar value 1 for 8-9, then a bar value of 1 for 9-10 then a bar value of 2 for 10-11 and a bar value of 2 for 11-12 then a bar value of 1 for 12am-1pm and bar value of 1 for 1pm-2pm.
The only way that I have managed to do that so far is to create a column for each time slot and then for each patient (each line on my excel table) with a long 'if, if if... formula' depending of course on the arrival time / departure time, plug 1 if patient is there during the time slot or nothing if he was not there, and then do a chart with this raw data.
I was wondering if there was any other way, if there is an excel time function which I could use, specifying the time slot and time of arrival/departure which could directly give '1' if patient was there ' if he was not. or a graph who could directly do that without the 24 column needed to chart a day's worth of activity.
Thank you for your help, any feedback/advice would help me a lot.

If your spreadsheet contains a list of times, it is useful to group them into intervals such as 30 minutes, hourly or every 6 hours.
Fortunately Excel provides a variety of methods to group time depending on what you need. In this blog post we look at 4 ways to group times using PivotTables and Excel formulas.
Group Time by the Hour using PivotTables
PivotTables make it very easy to group numeric data such as dates and times including grouping time by the hour.
If you have a list of times, simply drag the time column into the Rows area of the PivotTable.
In Excel 2016, the PivotTable automatically groups it by the hour, minute and second. Previous versions do not, but have the same options.
Time Slot Schedule
Group a time field by right mouse clicking on a cell containing a time and select Group. Then choose the group options you want.
