    Posted: 12 Jul 2011 at 11:27am

I am trying to get the time difference from one process to the next when I put in my formula it is giving me an out of range error message below is my formula

datediff('MM,DD,YYYY,HH,MM,SS',
(datetime(year(Minimum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          month(Minimum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          Day(Minimum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})))),
(datetime(year(Maximum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          month(Maximum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          Day(Maximum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})))))
 
This is the date appears
5/5/2011 10:57:21AM

datediff('MM,DD,YYYY,HH,MM,SS',
You have to select one value from the red list. Do youwant to see the differnce in month or day or years etc.

I selected HH from the list and that did not work so then I selected MM that still did not work so then I added the Hours Minutes and Seconds to my formula and that still does not work it still says that argument 1 is out of range (what I am looking to compare is the amount of time in hours or minutes that it took to go from one process to another) 
 
datediff ('HH',
(Datetime(year(Minimum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          Month(Minimum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          Day(Minimum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          Hour(Minimum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          Minute(Minimum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          Second(Minimum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})))),
(Datetime(year(Maximum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          Month(maximum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          Day(Maximum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          Hour(Maximum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          Minute(Maximum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})),
          Second(Maximum ({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE})))))

sorry,, many of your values were not valid and I did ot point that out...

h is for hours and n is for minutes.
 
I do not know what your 'process' is that youa re checking time differences but I would assume it is in a group sop your group level formula would look something like this (for minutes)...
 
datediff('n', minimum({@Date Time}, {Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE}), maximum{Billing_Cycle_Process_Tag_File.DocumentOrderInvoiceE}))
