@vjnvinod I'm just going to propose the tweak to @amitchandak measure:

 

Work Day =
COUNTROWS (
    FILTER (
        ADDCOLUMNS (
            CALENDAR ( MAX ( Table[Open on] ), MAX ( Table[Requested Delivery Date] ) ),
            "WorkDay", IF ( WEEKDAY ( [Date], 2 ) < 6, 1, 0 )
        ),
        [WorkDay] = 1
    )
)

@vjnvinod , I think you need workdays

 

 

Work Day = COUNTROWS(FILTER(ADDCOLUMNS(CALENDAR(Table[Open on],Table[Requested Delivery Date]),"WorkDay", if(WEEKDAY([Date],2) <6,1,0)),[WorkDay] =1))

@amitchandak

i think something is wrong, after the calendar function, it doesn't read the date column
