Hello,

I am trying to calculate completion dates for process steps. The steps have standard times in days associated with them, however, many of the steps take less than a full day to complete i.e. 0.25, 0.75 days. I tried using the WORKDAY function to calculate the completion date(s), however, WORKDAY does not recognize partial days. Below is an example table that I am trying to build. Can anyone recommend a function that will calculate completion dates based on work days (M-F) only and partial days for the process step durations?

Thank you!
