Add X network days to start date

[DennisSchlein]

Hi 

Im working on a forecast model, where I have a start date and a amount of working days to completion.

Could be
StartDate
18-04-2024

Exptected Task Working Days : 
5


Would expect it to return 25-04-2024.


And I cannot find a good day to do it?

Hi @DennisSchlein ,

Thanks for the reply fom @Dangar332 .

Here is how I did it:

This is my orignal data:

Date	Period
2024-04-01	5
2024-04-02	5
2024-04-03	5
2024-04-04	5
2024-04-05	5
2024-04-06	5
2024-04-07	5
2024-04-08	5
2024-04-09	5
2024-04-10	5
2024-04-11	5
2024-04-12	5
2024-04-13	5
2024-04-14	5
2024-04-15	5
2024-04-16	5
2024-04-17	5
2024-04-18	5
2024-04-19	5
2024-04-20	5
2024-04-21	5
2024-04-22	5
2024-04-23	5
2024-04-24	5
2024-04-25	5
2024-04-26	5
2024-04-27	5
2024-04-28	5
2024-04-29	5
2024-04-30	5

Created a calculated column:

End Date = 
IF (
    NOT WEEKDAY (
        DATE ( YEAR ( 'DateTable'[Date] ), MONTH ( 'DateTable'[Date] ), DAY ( 'DateTable'[Date] ) ),
        2
    )
        IN { 6, 7 },
    DATE ( YEAR ( 'DateTable'[Date] ), MONTH ( 'DateTable'[Date] ), DAY ( 'DateTable'[Date] ) + 'DateTable'[Period] + 2 )
)

The final page effect is as follows:

pbix file is attached.

If this does not meet your expected results, perhaps you could provide me with your pbix file? Remember not to log into your account on Power BI Desktop when uploading the pbix file.

Hi @v-huijiey-msft 

You model does it as i expect mine to.
But I can have different period values per day, depending on tast type.

I tried adding a modified logic from yours into my model, but its not quite right.
(it sayd The file type .pbix is not supported? When trying to add it here?



Added a sample file to my power bi space.
app.powerbi.com - Pbix link

Hi @DennisSchlein ,

I can not open the pbix link you shared, maybe you can upload it somewhere else? Like Google Drive, Onedrive or Dropbox?

Hi @DennisSchlein ,

Please try this new syntax:

End Date =
VAR _date = DATE(YEAR('sample'[CMR_Close]),MONTH('sample'[CMR_Close]),DAY('sample'[CMR_Close])+'sample'[E2E])
VAR _dateadd2 = DATE(YEAR('sample'[CMR_Close]),MONTH('sample'[CMR_Close]),DAY('sample'[CMR_Close])+'sample'[E2E])+2
RETURN
IF(WEEKDAY(_date,2)IN{6,7},_dateadd2,_date)

The visual effect of the page is as follows:

pbix file is attached.

Hi @v-huijiey-msft 



It's close, but there are some odd ones. As shows in the picture the same startdate with 2 different E2E values returns the same date?

Thank you for the effort
