calculate working days between two dates in row

Firstly appologies I am really new to power bi. I need to calculate the working days between two date in row.  I have tried using DATEDIFF which works for calendar days but I wish to exclude weekwends

 

Example

DataDump[Date Logged] and DataDump[Date Completed]
 
I have a second dates table that contains a field called 'SHARED Calendar'[is_weekend] which diplays 1 for saturday and sunday and 0 for weekdays.
 
I wish to know if DATEDIFF to calculate working days.

Count Business Days =
VAR MyDates =
 ADDCOLUMNS (
 GENERATESERIES ( TableName[StartDate] + 1, TableName[ EndDate] ),
 "Day", WEEKDAY ( [Value], 2 )
 )
RETURN
 COUNTROWS ( FILTER ( mydates, [Day] <= 5 ) )
