Excel: organizing identified variables in their own table
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I'm not trying to get super complicated with this but I'm struggling with the logic. I'm trying to organize my day-to-day time; in minutes; in three groups.
- Direct,
- Indirect,
- and Other.
I already have it set up that I type D
,I
, or O
as I'm entering in my information so that my quick and dirty activity log goes as follows
Activity. | Type. | Start time. | End time. | Minutes.
I already know how to find the difference in time in mind minutes. I'm struggling on how to organize the type in a separate graph to track how many minutes of my day are direct, indirect, or other. I guess an IF
function but I'm unsure how to write the logic. Haven't found success from that though.

Your question is unclear in what you want to achieve but to point you into the correct direction you can try the SUMIF function.=SUMIF(range,criteria,sum_range)
. In your case your range is the Type, criteria is eitherD
,I
orO
, sum_range is the entire Minutes column. Please think of what you exactly want to achieve (maybe provide an example output) and edit your question to notify people watching this question to get a suitable answer.

Formula is:
=SUMIF(B2:B7, "Put D, I or O here", E2:E7)
(where column B
is the type and column E
is the minutes)
