Add # of business days to "Due Date" based on "diff"

Konstantine Shengelia March 25, 2023

Hi,

I am using this:

{{issue.duedate.plusDays(fieldChange.from.toDate.diff(fieldChange.to.toDate).days).toBusinessDay}}

 Which does almost what I need:

  1. I update "Start date" by adding 3 days for example
  2. It updates "Due date" with same number of 3 days and then finds next business day after that

So, for example:

  • Task takes 2 days
  • It starts on Tuesday and ends on Thursday
  • If I change Tuesday to Wednesday, then Thursday changes to Friday, which is good

But

  • If I change Tuesday to next Monday, it counts not business days but whole 6 days (including weekend) and adds that to Due date.

So, I am trying to integrate "businessDays" smart value in these formula. Essentially:

  1. See how many business days was added to Start date
  2. Add same number of business days to Due date

Is that possible? Thanks

Hi @Konstantine Shengelia , 

Yes, it's possible to add the number of business days to the due date based on the "diff" between the start and end dates. Here's the modified formula:

{{issue.duedate.plusBusinessDays(fieldChange.from.toDate.businessDaysUntil(fieldChange.to.toDate)).toBusinessDay}}

This will calculate the number of business days between the start and end dates and add the same number of business days to the due date.

Regards

Oday
