    Holidays not working in NETWORKDAYS Function

    Hi Community,

    I'm using the following formula to work out how many working days there are in the month.

    =NETWORKDAYS(A2,EOMONTH(A2,0),Holidays[Date])

    We have 3 public holidays here in NZ in Jan, but for some reason, the formula I'm using is not picking up the data I've designated for holidays.
    It would be a great help if someone can spot where I'm going wrong!

    Book Holidays.xlsx

    Obviously, as the month changes the public holidays should be taken into account

    Thanks
    Tony

    Hi,

    Why do you believe the answer is 18 & not 19?

    There are 21 non weekend days, and you have two public holidays, 1 Jan and 27 Jan. You can't deduct 2 Jan since that's a Saturday and is already excluded from the 21 days

    1st
    2nd
    27th

    So it should be 18 - I cant see why its not working ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Let me move the 2nd to the 4th - and retry it.

    In Jan, there are 10 weekend days (2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24,30,31) and 3 holidays (1,2,27), total is 10+3=13, but 2nd day is weekend and also holiday, so be counted 1 only , then total should be =13-1=12

    Working day of Jan should be = 31-12=19 days.
