    1) Go to Transform Data.

    2) In the Transcation Table, click on Add Column, then Custom Column

    4) In the Custom Column Formula section, input the following (without the quotes):

    "if Date.DayOfWeek([INVOICE_DATE], Day.Monday) > 4
    then
    "Weekend"
    else
    "Weekday""

    5) Click Ok

    6) Click Close&Apply

    7) Add new Weekend field as a Filter on this page

    😎Select Weekday

    9) Problem solved :).
