Holiday Date Filter

AshishAgarwal
7 - Meteor

Please help to figure out below.

 

I have list of input data file for many days of 2021.

 

I need to pick up data of Holiday date till last working day.

 

For ex:

DateTopic
17-SepWorking Date
20-SepHoliday
21-SepWorking Date
22-SepWorking Date
23-SepHoliday
24-SepWorking Date

 

I need to pick up only 23rd Sept date file when I am running workflow for 24th Sept.

 

I tried working out some workflow but I am getting 2 date file of 20th Sept & 23rd Sept.

 

Please let me know which step i should modify or add to make workflow simple.

 

Thank you so much

Hi @AshishAgarwal ,

 

Maybe you can attach some sample data from the Japan Holiday.xlsx file, as currently we don't have access to that file and the workflows errors at the input tool.

Hi @AshishAgarwal 

 

Is this what you are trying to do calculate prev working day so that you can filter on previous working day.

Thanks @AshishAgarwal ,

 

Similar logic to what you've come up with, you can use a generate rows tool to create a list of all days from the COB date all the way back to the first of January for that year. Then with a Join tool, you can find all values that match (they are holidays) and then only keep the most recent with a sample tool

Hi @atcodedog05 

 

Sorry, but not like below

 

For 24th Sept my previous working day should be 22nd Sept.

 

Hence I need to pick up 23rd Data & 24th data for my workflow.

 

I figured out to pick up 24th data but having issue in picking 23rd data.

Ashish

Hi @AngelosPachis 

 

sample tool will pick up only first row but I can have multiple contionous holiday.

 

For example in May we have holiday from 3rd May to 5th May.

 

So I have to up data for all 3 holidays.

 

Hence I cannot put sample.

Hi @atcodedog05 

 

Sorry, I might not have informed correctly.

 

I will run workflow for 24th Sept and I have list of Japan Holidays file.

 

From that I have to figure out holiday date preceding workflow date. 

 

Below data is only for explanation here. I will not have such data in my workflow.

I have reattached my workflow.

 

Sorry for taking so much time.
