Hi,

one possible solution:

Call_Details:
LOAD *,
    Interval([END DATE]-[START DATE], 'hh:mm:ss') as DURATION;
LOAD TextBetween(@1,'<CALLID>','</CALLID>') as [CALL ID],
    Timestamp(Timestamp#(TextBetween(@1,'<STARTDATETIME>','</STARTDATETIME>'), 'YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss.fff'),'DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm:ss') as [START DATE],
    Timestamp(Timestamp#(TextBetween(@1,'<ENDDATETIME>','</ENDDATETIME>'), 'YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss.fff'),'DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm:ss')  as [END DATE]
FROM [http://community.qlik.com/servlet/JiveServlet/download/603856-123860/example.csv.xls] (txt, utf8, no labels, delimiter is '\t', msq);

hope this helps

regards

Marco

Hi,

Use like

Timestamp(Timestamp#([END DATE],'MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm:SS TT'))-Timestamp(Timestamp#([START DATE],'MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm:SS TT')) as Duration

OR

use above field in

Interval(Timestamp(Timestamp#([END DATE],'MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm:SS TT'))-Timestamp(Timestamp#([START DATE],'MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm:SS TT')),Format Code)

Hi chandini,

Load from Call_Details...

timestamp(timestamp#(TextBetween(Call_Details,'<STARTDATETIME>','</STARTDATETIME>'),'MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm:SS TT'),'MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm:SS TT') as "START DATE",

timestamp(timestamp#(TextBetween(Call_Details,'<ENDDATETIME>','</ENDDATETIME>'),'MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm:SS TT'),'MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm:SS TT') as "END DATE"

Calc_Diff:

Interval([END DATE]-[START DATE]),Format Code) as 'DURATION

Resident Call_Details;
