The addWorkDays() function provides the ability to add or subtract weekdays (i.e., Monday through Friday) from a date.
Syntax
addWorkDays(date, integer, [holidays])
| Argument | Description |
| date
(required) |
An expression that results in a date value (i.e., a hard-coded date, a reference to a date attribute, or a function that returns a date value). |
| integer
(required) |
The value to add to the date argument. If the value provided is not an integer, it will be rounded to the nearest integer. |
| holidays
(optional) |
An expression that results in a comma separated list of date values (i.e., hard-coded dates or a reference to an attribute). These dates will be ignored, along with weekends, when adding work days.
Note: If the holidays argument is hard-coded, it should be surrounded in quotation marks (e.g., “2020-12-25, 2021-01-01”). |
