    Need to convert schedule from workday to "now" or hours

    I have a attached a schedule that I need to improve. (the only relevant tab is "Eastern, and I have made the affecting formula header black and the input time in red)

    What i need to do is instead of utilizing "projected run time in days" (Column P) , I need this to be in hours (or even minutes). Hours are preferred. The problem i have had is that I cannot get the intended dates in column A & R because they are based on workday function. Hours were always preferred but using Workday & Today for this schedule was all I was able to achieve thus far. Please note that columns N & O also contribute to this equation.

    So to summarize, I need:

    Column A & Column R (Projected finish /delivery dates) need to have the same results as current (or can include time and minutes) except that I need it to be based on hours or minutes entered into Column P (Run time)

    How are you currently calculating the number in P?

    OK - I see now (I think).

    If P2 is in hours, them this in A2:

    =WORKDAY(TODAY(),((SUM(P$2:P2,(IF(N2="Yes",72,P2))+(IF(O2="Yes",168,P2))))/24))

    If P2 is in minutes, then this in A2:

    =WORKDAY(TODAY(),((SUM(P$2:P2,(IF(N2="Yes",72*60,P2))+(IF(O2="Yes",168*60,P2))))/(24*60)))

    Indeed, that's what I understood since that's what you mentioned in your OP.
