 So I was... unsatisfied with the way the enclosed solution had the months in alphabetical order. I mean, who does that? 

 

So I ordered the months and reintegrated at the finish. This is a brutally inartful solution, but I made it into pretty colors to compensate. Enjoy.

Nice to see it close to a real-life use case, thank you!  I followed a similar approach to the solution provided.

Solved. My main challenge was to figure out how to generate rows effectively, since there's not an equivalent of Excel's NETWORKDAY formula. Fun!
