Hi Tessa,

Thanks for reaching out. This type of content creation assistance is usually reserved for our consulting department, do you know whether your organization has any Extended Services time available with us?

That said, if you can provide a description of the calculation in question or the objective here, I can leave this for comment from the larger community.

Hi Eric,

Thanks for your response. I am unsure whether we have any extended services time.

I am trying to calculate business days in any given month. The Days between function is working however I require just business days.

Thank you

Hi Tessa,

You may have success creating a custom advanced function for this -

I could also create a task to include "business days" along with "days between" if that's a preferred solution. Let me know how you'd like to proceed here.

Thanks,

Eric

Hi Eric,

If you could create a task to include "business days" that would be great.

Hi Tessa,

Apologies, looking back i didn't see your initial response.

Thanks for the clarification. I've gone ahead and created a developer task to look into potentially adding this functionality to a future version of the application. I've attached this ticket to the task and added your organization as an affected client for tracking purposes. Updates to the task will be provided here as they are available. I'll mark this as Idea Logged for now; feel welcome to reply here with any related inquiries.

Thanks,

Eric

hi Mary,

No updates to report at this time; you can request an escalation on task id YFN-24692 though your account manager for additional prioritization.

Thanks,

Eric
