Hello
I've looked through a number of threads on business datediff but a lot of them are focused on only counting non-weekend days. I haven't been able to find a thread on summing the number of business days using a date table where the business day is flag as 1 or 0.
I have two tables in my datasource. Table1 is my main data and I'm needing to return the sum of business days from my secondary table, the Dim_Date[Business Day Flag] = 1 between Table1[OpenDate] and Table1[ClosedDate].
Table2 is my date table which does contain a 1 or a 0 for business day flag. This flag is purpose built and has all public holidays and non-working days built into it's logic.
Table2 is joined to the datasource and connected to Table1.[OpenDate].
I cannot attach a file due to sensativity. Can anyone help?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous,
Please check out the demo in the attachment. One NOTE: the Cross Filter Direction should be Single.
BusinessDays = CALCULATE ( SUM ( Dim_Date[Business Day Flag] ), FILTER ( 'Dim_Date', 'Dim_Date'[Date] >= [OpenDate] && 'Dim_Date'[Date] <= Table1[ClosedDate] ) )
Best Regards,
Dale

Massive amatuer hour. The issue was i was using a measure...not a column. Solution is great.
Hi there again.
I went ahead and adding the min and max functions. Which will work if i can add context for a Table1[RecordID],
How would you suggest i add in row level context for a RecordID to this calcuation?
BusinessDays =
CALCULATE (
SUM(Dim_Date[BusinessDayFlag]),
FILTER (
'Dim_Date',
'Dim_Date'[Date] >= MIN(Table1[OpenDate])
&& 'Dim_Date'[Date] <= MAX(Table1[CloseDate])
)
)
Hi @Anonymous,
I' m glad you solved it. The calculated column is better than a measure in this scenario.
Best Regards,

Thanks for this. I think i'm close!
I've checked the relationship and that matches the solutions.
I'm getting the following error. Do i have to mix/max something here?
I don't know why i can't just copy and paste your code, given it works in your example!
Could this be a version issue with Power BI Desktop?
