Possible to generate every business date for 2023?

Hi,

 

I am trying to generate every business date for 2023.

 

Then take my data (2 dates) and fill the value for all dates between these 2 dates.

So the result would look something like this:

Testers2023_10_022022_10_032022_10_04....2023_11_032023_11_04
Louis Stevents0.40.40.40.40.40.4 

 

whith 2023-11-04 blank as the .4 doesnt fall in here.

 

Edit - able to get .4 for every business date, but that isnt right.

Hi, @wonka1234 

 

Kindly consider the below:

1. Add a Sort Tool and sort Descending by Date.

2. Add a Record ID Tool (and start the count at an odd number if you need the [Field] value in this row to stay the same OR start the count at an even number if you need the [Field] value in this row to be zero).

3. Add a Formula Tool and use this treatment to update the [Field] value (or create a separate new field)

 

- Update existing Field

IF Mod([Record ID],2) = 0 THEN 0

ELSE [Field]

ENDIF

 

- Create a new Field

IF Mod([Record ID],2) = 0 THEN 0

ELSE [the existing that you need to alternate between zero and itself]

ENDIF

 

I hope you find this helpful - cheers!
