    I have checked your form and I see that you are trying to put in all the time logs and time differences in an Input Table field. I would like to apologize, however, in order for you to get the correct time differences accurately, you need to use a Time field. In your case, since you would like to have it in an Input Table with Text Box set as the input type, I suggest you separate the hour and minute for the time in and the time out.

    For example:

    This will prevent the form from getting an hour difference of 70 when 9:30 is entered for the time in and 10:00 for the time out. This happens because 9:30 is being recognized as 930 and 10:00 as 1000 (1000 - 930 = 70).

    Here's a sample form that I have created — https://form.jotformpro.com/72534186378970

    Please check rows Monday to Wednesday and AM columns only.

    I also suggest you create a clone version of it to your account so you can better inspect the conditions — How-to-Clone-an-Existing-Form-from-a-URL
