Hi @9198459056,

You need to convert time to epoch format for calculation. You can use the below options;

Difference is duration format;
eval diff=tostring(round(strptime(A,"%H:%M:%S")-strptime(B,"%H:%M:%S")),"duration")

Difference in seconds;
eval diff=round(strptime(A,"%H:%M:%S")-strptime(B,"%H:%M:%S"))
