Business days depend on your start date

A business day is a day that matches the working schedule you select. The default schedule skips Saturday and Sunday. It does not automatically skip public holidays, school closures or company-specific days off.

A concrete example

Starting on Friday, October 23, 2026, excluding the start date and skipping Saturday/Sunday: Monday the 26th is day 1, Tuesday the 27th is day 2, and Wednesday the 28th is day 3. Five business days ends on Friday the 30th. Therefore 3–5 business days spans October 28–30 in this example.

Change the starting date above for your own result. The calendar table shows exactly which dates are counted or skipped.
