Bug ID: 133919
Summary: Import of Excel format data transfer file rounds time
incorrectly
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.4.4.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: info at huntsgrove.ie
Description:
I am importing a spread sheet file in Excel format from an Android application,
and on some fields, the time captured by Calc is formatting incorrectly, and it
seems to be a rounding issue with the conversion. As an example, a time of
13:00, which calidates correctly in the Android device is converted by Calc
into 12:59:59, and it would seem that the value in the cell is effectively
15:59:59.9, but I cannot find a way to get it correctly rounded in Calc.
The problem is that if the time is calculated using HH:MM format, the time is
shown as 12:59, and then when used to calculate the elapsed time, it is showing
the correct elapsed time, but due to the rounding error, it appears to be wrong
by 1 minute due to the rounding issue.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Excel format data file transferred from Android device
2.Review data sent
3.See rounding errors on some fields
Actual Results:
Times imported can vary and cause apparent issues with calculated times shown
in spreadsheet
Expected Results:
Time that should be displayed as (eg) 13:00 is displayed as 12:59, but time
difference calculation has used 13:00, as the raw value appears to be
12:59:59.9,
Reproducible: Sometimes
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
If needed, can provide a data file that shows this in a number of records, but
I don't have enough information about the internal file structure to be sure of
the diagnosis of the error.
