working days

 Hello,


I have a problem with this metric. I need to count the working days between the two dates. In some moments, the metric works perfectly, but in other situations, it does not work like in the example.


Anybody know why?


Thank you for your comments.

    Hi MTrullàs 
    It is difficult to verify how columns are evaluated within the filter context without having the data in front of your eyes. However, I would follow a totally different approach. I would create my own calendar table. The only thing is that I don't know what are you expecting to see if either of the start/end dates is blank? I just return zero.

    Transporte Campa =
VAR StartDay =
    MAX ( HIFA[Ch35 (WERK-AUS) Ist] )
VAR EndDay =
    MAX ( HIFA[Ch38 (DEP-EIN) Ist] )
RETURN
    IF (
        ISBLANK ( StartDay ) || ISBLANK ( EndDay ),
        0,
        VAR DatesTable =
            CALENDAR ( StartDay, EndDay - 1 )
        VAR DatesAndWeekDays =
            ADDCOLUMNS ( DatesTable, "@WeekDay", WEEKDAY ( [Date], 2 ) )
        VAR WorkDaysTable =
            FILTER ( DatesAndWeekDays, NOT ( [@WeekDay] IN { 6, 7 } ) )
        RETURN
            COUNTROWS ( WorkDaysTable )
    )
