    Formula to get number of calendar days per number of manufacturing days

    Hello All,

    Can anyone provide me the formula to give me the number of calendar days to a specific number of manufacturing days? For example, the supplier tells me it will be 4 manufacturing weeks lead time. I need to know how many calendar days it will be. I'm thinking it should be something simple, but I am brain dead for some reason.

    thanks in advance!

    Re: Need quick formula to get number of calendar days per number of manufacturing days

    Does the manufacturer work 5 or 7 days a week?

    The manufacturing days would be 5 days.

    Hi,

    Try using Networkdays formula to calculate working days between two dates

    Well, for Networkdays, I would need the End Date, and that's what I'm trying to find out.

    Re: Formula to get number of calendar days per number of manufacturing days

    So you'd use WORKDAY function.

    Ex. You have Start Date in Column A, Manufacturing Week in B, Calculation in Column C

    EndDate.JPG

    If the manufacturer has custom weekend (ex. works Tue-Sat) use WORKDAY.INTL

    Also consider building holiday table.

    Re: Formula to get number of calendar days per number of manufacturing days

    Thank you so much CK76! It helped me in that all I had to do was add one more formula, to get the total number of days, which was my original goal. I added DAYS360 to count the number of manufacturing days.
    Thank you so much for your help!

    Re: Formula to get number of calendar days per number of manufacturing days

    I'm coming back into this pretty late, but I have a question. If the manufacturing is on a 5 day work week, wouldn't the total manufacturing days be 21 instead of 28 in your example?

    Nah, OP is using Workday to find the end date. Then he's getting calendar days by subtracting start date from end date.

    Do you really need WORKDAY and DAYS360 for this? If a job will take 4 weeks isn't that just 7*4 = 28?

    Not really, if one doesn't need to consider stat holiday etc. If holidays need to be taken into account, you need WORKDAY.
