    Split time across multiple brands in a timesheet database

    Hey I'm working on a database with a form input to record my time on projects at work. Can anyone help me figure out how to split End Time - Start Time among all brands that I've chosen for a line item? Hoping the example (linked below) will help provide clarity about what I'm trying to do.

    If you want to break up a period of time to multiple brands for each line item then need to enter a record for each brand/line item.

    The Brand/Indication field is a multi-value. I NEVER use multi-value fields. I doubt multi-value field will be helpful in achieving what you want.

    Time and attendance database is one of the more difficult to build.

    Thanks for that June7. Is it possible to create multiple unique rows using a form entry? Second, is it possible to auto-divide time among brands like I want to do? Any help you could provide would be appreciated!

    Thanks much,

    That automation behavior would require VBA code.
