I would like to exclude the weekends (Saturday and Sunday). Can someone help me out?
Thanks in advance
Solved! Go to Solution.
HI @WLFRD,
You can use countrows and weekday functions to create a calculated column to achieve your requrement:
Datediff =
COUNTROWS (
FILTER (
CALENDAR ( Table[D_ENTER_DATE], Table[D_PROM_ENTER_DATE] ),
WEEKDAY ( [Date], 2 ) < 6
)
)

@WLFRD TRy this DAX column:
Column =
VAR weekday = WEEKDAY(DateColumn,2)
RETURN IF(weekday in {6,7},0,1)
So, all the rows with 1 are from Monday to Friday. You can filter out 0 in order to exclude weekend.
@WLFRD ,
Try the below approach provide in the link and let me know if that does not helps.
