Converting Decimels Numbers into Hours, Minutes, Seconds

I currently have a column that has decimel numberic values and I need to convert these values into a time format. Please note that the column containing this data is not a Date/Time column. A beastmode or and ETL transformation will work for me.

Example:

Column contains 2.25, I would like for it to display as 2:15 or 00:02:15. I will take either format.

Domo Support was able to create a beastmode to do this.

Example:

To get the Average Abandoned Time take = (SUM(`abntime`)/SUM(`abncalls`))/60.

To convert mintues and fractions of a minutes this beastmode was created

concat(floor(IFNULL(((SUM(`abntime`)/NULLIF(SUM(`abncalls`),0))/60),0)),'.',

-- 1.8 = time in min --
RIGHT(CONCAT('0', ROUND((
(IFNULL(((SUM(`abntime`)/NULLIF(SUM(`abncalls`),0))/60),0)) * 60 -- converts it to seconds
- FLOOR((IFNULL(((SUM(`abntime`)/NULLIF(SUM(`abncalls`),0))/60),0))) * 60)-- converts whole min to seconds (min + seconds) - (min)
,0)),2) -- Get rid of decimal for concat() --
)*1

There is a function called SEC_TO_TIME() that would probably work for you.

Are your values in minutes? Try this : SEC_TO_TIME(2.25*60) -> 00:02:15

Are your values in hours? Try this : SEC_TO_TIME(2.25*3600) -> 02:15:00

Thanks for the response Aaron. I have already tried sec_to_time. All get is the column changes to a text format and a value of 1.

That's pretty strange @ShaneB.

I know you mentioned your value column is a number. Can you double check that maybe?

How are you displaying the output of the beast mode? Can you try a table and verify that the raw value is being calculated correctly? Maybe send a screenshot.

@ShaneB - just wondering, was the chart type used in the card a table or some type of bar chart where Domo Support was able to create a beast mode that allowed you to show the average in real time, not a decimal/numeric format and minutes as a percentage? Thanks!

Use following formula:

CONCAT(FLOOR((round((sum((`hours worked`))),2)*60)/60),' h ', round(MOD((round((sum((`hours worked`))),2)*60),60),2),' m')

where `hours worked` is a column containing values like 1.77 hours.

Here we are converting these decimal hours into minutes and then getting output in form of 'X h Y m'.

You may change the beast mode in case your data resides in one row for each day(or time period) which would require removing sum and if you want to see ':' you may as well remove h and m and put any delimiter instead.

Thanks. Happy DOMOing
