Hi all,

Im trying to put together an A/L tracker for my mother in Laws business.

Ive done everything right, at the very end now and I've realised the tracker does not calculate the weekend as a working day. Her business has staff working on most weekends. No clue how to change this.

I've posted screenshots of every formula ive used that has a date formula in it. Could someone please take a look and help?

Thanks

Thanks for your response. I’ll look into uploading it properly tomorrow. Saturday and Sunday are considered a weekend but people can still work on those days and book them off. Not concerned about holidays either. Thanks

It looks as though you are talking about cells D22, J22 etc, but there are no formulae in them.

Try giving last priority for weekend conditional formatting.
If weekend conditional formatting is in the first priority further further conditions are not calculated.

Subtracting all calendar days, but end date cannot fall on a weekend or holiday. If it does, the end date shifts to the preceding work day.
