Hi,
I want to have something similar to "countifs" - I want to count the days in the current month which aren't Saturdays or Sundays.
I work with an online DB and can't create additional columns.
My column 'Date'[Date] lists all dates continously, day by day, including weekends.
I have this, which doesn't work:
JustWorkdaysThisMonth = CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS(DATESMTD('Date'[Date])),
FILTER('Date', WEEKDAY('Date'[Date]="Saturday") || WEEKDAY('Date'[Date]="Sunday"))
)
Do you have any advice?
Solved! Go to Solution.
@BerlinAlexander , Try like
JustWorkdaysThisMonth = CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS(FILTER('Date', WEEKDAY('Date'[Date],2) <6)),DATESMTD('Date'[Date])
)
or
JustWorkdaysThisMonth = CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS('Date'),DATESMTD('Date'[Date])
FILTER('Date', WEEKDAY('Date'[Date],2) <6)
)
Hi,
Could you try something like this :
IsWeekDay= SWITCH (MyCalendar[WeekDayName]; "sunday" ; 0; "saturday";0;1)
Then you can do a sum on this column IsWeekDay.
Hope this helps
@BerlinAlexander , Try like
JustWorkdaysThisMonth = CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS(FILTER('Date', WEEKDAY('Date'[Date],2) <6)),DATESMTD('Date'[Date])
)
or
JustWorkdaysThisMonth = CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS('Date'),DATESMTD('Date'[Date])
FILTER('Date', WEEKDAY('Date'[Date],2) <6)
)
Thanks a lot. I have one additional question.
It seems that this is considering the whole month.
If I wanted to have MTD instead (i.e. today is July 15th, so I would like to consider just the time since the month beginning till July 15th), how should I change the code?
Hi,
You have the STARTOFMONTH() function that should do the trick.
