ADD or MINUS NUMBER OF WORKING DAYS FROM A DATE

[Anonymous]

Hi guys,

I am new to Power Bi, hoping someone will be able to assist me. I am trying to add (and remove- in another report) a number of working days from a date. I have a date table already and a workday column. Below is logic in excel, trying to convert this into DAX:

Hi @Anonymous ,

Why are the start date and end date in the NETWORKDAYS function the same?

You may meed to create a measure like this.

Measure = 
IFERROR(
    SWITCH(
        TRUE(),
        MAX([Expiry Indicator]) = "No Expiry Date", BLANK(),
        DATEDIFF( ) = 0, DATEADD(Sheet5[Tenancy Expiry Date], -20, DAY),
        DATEDIFF( ) = 1, DATEADD(Sheet5[Tenancy Expiry Date], -19, DAY)
    ),
    "Check"
)

Please give a sample data of the table if you cant get the correct result and explain your calculation logic again.

Best regards,
Lionel Chen
