Hi All,

 

I need to replicate the excel formula in Alterx. AP Date=WORKDAY(Vendor Paid Date,-2, Holidays) I have played with some of the solutions given in the community, but I can't get them to work 😞

 

Any help is appreciated 🙂

 

Attached are the some dates and the holiday list.

 

Thanks!!!!

Grace

Hi @Gr4c3Sult , 

 

I've attached an example solution below. It utilizes an iterative macro to find the first valid day if the initial subtraction of 2 days is on a weekend or holiday. Labor day was giving me some trouble so I had to hotfix but the rest seemed to be correct. Hoping you can take it from here. 

 

Hope this helps!
