counting of no. of days

[Anonymous]

Hello All,

I am counting number of days with networkdays() function.

Example: networkdays(min(orderdate), max(orderdate))

but this function also counting no. of days from those month as well which are not available for the selection.

I want to count only those days in which order has been given.

Is their any alternate of networkdays() function?

What is the purpose? Do you just wanna know how many days there are? Then distinct count your orderdate.

Hey Thomas,

I have just given the scenario.

I was counting attendance of the faculty where attendance date is similar to order date.

My purpose is here to show in a month how many times faculty have taken their session out of working days.

I am getting working days from networkdays(min(attendancedate), max(attendancedate)) as WrokingDays.

But this function also counting those days of month which are not available for selection.

See, if you suggest how to avoid those working days of month which are not available for attendance selection.

If you wanna count days within your selection you should use set analysis i would suggest.

It's basically counting number of days excluding 'Sat' and 'Sun' days. May be you can try like:

Count(If( WeekDay(DateField)<>'Sat' AND WeekDay(DateField)<>'Sun' , DateField)

I could do but this scenario need month to be fix but here months are changing w.r.t year...

Say, in 2012 no attendance in may and june but in 2013 there is attendance in may......

Yes it is counting days excluding  'Sat' and 'Sun' days but your expression will count those values as well which are not available for selection.

Please read my scenario which I have have already posted...

Try Interval rather than networkDays,

=interval(min(attadenceDate)-max(attadenceDate),'DD')

Harshal,

not working it is counting Sat/Sun as well in this case...

If you want to go beyond selection scope, have to use Set Analysis, try like:

Count( {1} If( WeekDay(DateField)<>'Sat' AND WeekDay(DateField)<>'Sun' , DateField)

This will give you for all dates irrespective of any selection.
