Count of working days between two date columns, excluding holidays

Hello,

 

I've looked at a number of posts on similar issues, however I still can't get this to work. 

 

I have a table with work received and closed dates in separate columns. I need to calculate the number of working days between the two dates, excluding and holidays.

I have a date table set up, which pulls through the holidays from another table and a column which gives a 1 or 0, depending on whether it is a working day or not, using the following logic

 

Duration 1/0 = IF(OR('Date Table'[Day of Week]=5,'Date Table'[Day of Week]=6),0,IF('Date Table'[Is Bank Holiday]="",1,0))

Using DATEDIFF, I can get the number of days between the two date field, however I'm getting stuck on how to filter out the holidays on the date table. 

 3.PNG

 

Days between Rec/Closed = DATEDIFF('Workflow Duration'[Received Date],'Workflow Duration'[Closed Date],DAY)+1

 

Could someone please let me know what I should be doing with the logic to achieve this?

 

Thank you.

Check my example below, pbix also attached. You may add other bank holiday conditions to the filter if you have.

Column = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Date table'),
                FILTER('Date table',[Date]>=EARLIER(([Start]))&&[Date]<=EARLIER([Close])),
                FILTER('Date table',WEEKDAY('Date table'[Date],2)<>6 &&WEEKDAY('Date table'[Date],2)<>7))
