I am buiding a time on routine, we want to show how many hours something has been on the database until it is closed out, for instance if an item gets assigned at 5 PM the previous day that is hour 17....and the next day at 8 AM my calculation shows -8, when it is really 15 hours.
how can I show the number of hours it has been on the system.
 
I expect the datediff function is what you want. You just need to be sure to pass it date and time together with the correct parameter of hour.
