Count the number of days and weekends

How can I count the number of days and weekends as of today in a month?

 

Saturday & Sunday are considered the weekend.

Hi @gauravnarchal ,

 

I have created a Calendar table for test, and on my side, today is 2022/4/5.

Please create measures:

Working days = CALCULATE( COUNTROWS(FILTER('Calendar',[Date]<=TODAY())) ,FILTER('Calendar', WEEKDAY([Date],2) in {1,2,3,4,5}))
Weekends = CALCULATE( COUNTROWS(FILTER('Calendar',[Date]<=TODAY())) ,FILTER('Calendar', WEEKDAY([Date],2) in {6,7}))

Output:

Try this

CALCULATE(Countrows(datesdim), all(datesdim), format(datedim[date],"DDD") = "Sat" && format(datedim[date],"DDD") = "Sun"))
