I'm trying to create a calculation field that calculates time and days it took to quote.

I have record created date and record created time fields and then record quoted date and record quoted time fields.

I'm hoping to have a field that shows average time to quote 3 days, 34 minutes

Anyone have experience on something like this?

Thank you

You could save two fields here by using timestamp fields instead.

Anyway, you can easily calculate the duration by subtracting:

Timestamp ( QuotedDate ; QuotedTime ) - Timestamp ( CreationDate ; CreationTime )

That will give you the total duration in seconds, and now you need to divide it into days, hours and minutes (assuming that's how you want to display it) =

Let ( [
elapsed = Timestamp ( QuotedDate ; QuotedTime ) - Timestamp ( CreationDate ; CreationTime ) ;
days = Div ( elapsed ; 86400 ) ;
time = Mod ( elapsed ; 86400 ) ;
hours = Hour ( time ) ;
minutes = Minute ( time )
] ;
days & " days, " & hours & " hours and " & minutes & " minutes"
)

If this is meant to show an average, then calculate only the elapsed duration, use a summary field to produce the average duration, and another calculation field to break the summary value into its individual components as shown.
