    Holiday Calculations

    For some reason this didn't post the other day, oh well. Try, try, try again....

    I'm looking to add holiday entitlement to my wages spreadsheet.

    This is for casual staff who work irregular hours. In the UK they earn 7.242 minutes of holiday time for every hour worked, or, 12.07% of what ever time they have worked. So the calculation seems straight forward, hours x 7.242 / 60. (the actual formula suggest is 12.07/100 x hours but excel seems to hate that)

    has anyone else got any suggestions on how to calculate earned holiday entitlement?
    Is there a formula to use proper time calculations to work this out or do i need to convert the time to numbers? (same for hourly pay, can this be done through the time format or do I have to convert time to numbers? ie 3 hours 45 minutes needs to be converted to 3.75 to work out their pay)

    In what format is their total weekly time currently shown? Exactly?

    Re: Holiday Calculations

    Well would you look at that, people lied to me, they said excel doesn't do % and everything has to be X/100, so i simply never tried %.

    That works perfectly ALiGW, thank you very much.

    ...Spoke to soon perhaps. The calculation works fine, now I have to convert that into wages.

    What I would like the spread sheet to do is work out:

    1. How much holiday they have earnt per month
    2. Add that to any holiday they earn't from the previous month
    3. Subtract any holiday they have taken that month.
    4. Work how much they should be paid for the holiday they have taken.
    5. Show how much holiday is remaining.

    I cant work out pay from time at the moment, as mentioned above it seems I have to convert it to a number first. The rest I can do.

    Issue with time to wages
    7h 45 mins x £10 = £3.23

    Convert to a number, 7.75 and it works out right at £77.50
