Excel WORKDAY.INTL Function

Excel WORKDAY.INTL Function

Summary 

The Excel WORKDAY.INTL function takes a date and returns the nearest working in the future or past, based on an offset value you provide. Unlike the WORKDAY function, WORKDAY.INTL allows you to customize which days are considered weekends (non-working days). You can use WORKDAY.INTL function to calculate completion dates, ship dates, etc. that take into account non-working days.

Purpose 

Get date n working days in future or past

Return value 

Next or previous working date based on inputs

  • days – The end date.
  • weekend – [optional] Setting for which days of the week should be considered weekends.

Usage notes 

WORKDAY.INTL figures out a date that represents the “nearest” working day N days in the past or future. Use a positive number as days for future dates and a negative number for past dates. This function is more robust than the WORKDAY function because it lets you customize which days of the week are considered weekends.
