Help calculating a date, excluding weekends and US holidays
I am doing a project workback schedule in excel. I need a formula to calculate the End Date, minus the duration, excluding weekends and holidays.
A = Duration
B = Start Date
C = End Date
My formula is =C1-A1=B1
C1 = 8/19/22
B1 = ?
A1 = Duration
Question: How do I exclude weekends and holidays from this formula?
Thank you in advance, Nora from Southern California
Since your references change in every posting I will use placeholders. You fill in the real references.
=WORKDAY(Due_Date,-Duration,Holidays)
Holidays refers to a range with US holiday dates.
- Nora ConnorsCopper ContributorTY for the reply 🙂 This is just for US. I've tried ..... =WORKDAY(C1-A1)[holidays] but it doesn't work? What am I doing wrong?

- mtarlerSilver ContributorNETWORKDAYS and there is an international version and you can set up any set of holidays you want
