Hey all,
I am struggling on how to approach a problem,
I want to count the days between 2 dates, but only count working days.
My current formula is: DATEDIFF('Report'[DeliveryDate],NOW(),Day)
Which works fine, but obviously this will count the weekends, has anybody got an idea on how i would approach this?
Many Thanks.
Ben

Hi @Benjamin_500,
First you should create a holiday table including all holiday form Delivery start date to Today. Then create relationship between holiday table and your 'Repot' table.
I try to reproduce your scenario using date from 2017/1/1 to 2017/3/31.
Search the holiday days for 2017, I use "List of federal Public Holidays of USA in 2017", and type it in Power BI table as followings.
Create relationship between Holiday table and Date Table.
Use WEEKDAY function to get weekdays, use RELATED function to get holidays. Use if function to decide if the day is work day.
WeekDay = WEEKDAY(DateTable[Date]) Holiday = RELATED(Holiday[Holiday])
If work day = IF(OR(DateTable[WeekDay]=1,DateTable[WeekDay]=7),0,IF(ISBLANK(DateTable[Holiday]),1,0))
The 1 stands for the day is work day.
Finally, create a measure to calculate the number od holidays. And create a card visual to display the result.
Total work days = CALCULATE(COUNT(DateTable[Date]),FILTER(DateTable,DateTable[If work day]=1))
If you have other issues, please let me know.
Best Regards,
Angelia
