How to find eweekend date in excel? - excel

How to write a formula in excel which tells whether a date is a week end date or not. I am trying to get to a formula which takes date into consideration and tells me if the date is a Friday, add 2 days, else add 1 day

Weekday function will do the job

Weekday() returns a number for the day of the week, from 1 to 7. By default, 1 is Sunday, but parameters can make 1 refer to Monday or another weekday.
If you want to work with differences in days, also look at Networkdays() which returns the difference in days between two dates, not counting weekends and not counting a list of holiday dates you can specify.

Find days remaining until due date minus weekends in excel

I've been trying to configure a formula using the function MAX and TODAY to return the days remaining until the due date minus the weekends.
I'm using the 'Timeline' column entry to calculate the 'Due' date column =WORKDAY.INTL(Data!$H5-1,Data!$I5,1).
So, the issue I'm having and I'm not able to find why is within the 'Remaining(days)' column formula to find the remaining days from the current date today =MAX(0,Data!$J5-TODAY()).
Any pointers or help would be very appreciated, thanks!
Excel's function NETWORKDAYS() does that.
Returns the number of whole working days between start_date and
end_date. Working days exclude weekends and any dates identified in
holidays.

Use =IF([TimelineDays]<0,0,NETWORKDAYS.INTL(TODAY(),[DueDate],1)), this will return exactly the days remaining minus the weekends plus any days that are prior to your starting date if your start date is before today or the current date.

How do I find the date of the first day of week given any date and assuming Monday as day 1 in Excel

What I need is a formula which provides me with the date of the start of a week (Monday is day 1) for any date i chose. for example 20/10/2019 (Sunday) should yield 14/10/2019 as the start of the week. Previous similar posts don't prove to solve my problem because i have a date and not the week number (i tried this). How do I convert a calendar week into a date in Excel?
I used the date to get the week number in order to make the posted solutions work. Unfortunately excel's WEEKNUM formula automatically assumes Sunday as the first day of the week and so each Sunday's week number is counted as the following week.
WEEKNUM counts Sunday as following week
For 20/10/2019 the start of the week needs to be 14/10/2019
Try
=GivenDate-WEEKDAY(GivenDate,2)+1
replace GivenDate with a valid date or the cell reference of a valid date, such as 20/10/2019 which shall return 14/10/2019.

Excel formula, IF certain day of week then add "x" number of days

I'm having trouble figuring out how to write a formula for the following scenario. I need to calculate date based on another column but need to add days based on day of the week of original column.
If day of week equals 'Mon/Wed/Fri/Sat' then add 5 days.
If day of week equals 'Tue' then add 6 days.
If day of week equals 'Thur" then add 4 days.
For example,
Column A Column B
3/11/17 (Show date based on above scenario)
3/13/17
3/18/17
Use Choose:
=A1+CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(A1,2),5,6,5,4,5,5,0)
So the Weekday(A1,2) converts the weekday to its position in the week starting with Monday being 1 and Sunday being 7.
The numbers are the number of days to add per day.
It then adds the chosen day to the date.

Calculate the first week of year which starts from first Sunday of every Feb

I have an issue here. I want to calculate the week nummber of first sunday of business year. Where I work their calendar starts on February 1st. To calculate i have a column A2 in excel which has the date in mm/dd/yyyy format. I want to generate the corresponding fiscal week for the column.
example of my result set:
for 2/1/15 the week of year number should be 1
For 2/7/16 the week number of year should be 1
I tried the below formula, but its starting the week from the first day of the fiscal year and not the first sunday of the year.
=INT((A1-WEEKDAY(E9165)-DATE(YEAR(A1+7-WEEKDAY(A1))-(MONTH(A1)<2),2,1))/7)+2
Please help...

Assuming that your work years always start on the first sunday after February 1st:
=IF(WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1)<=0,52+WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1),WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1))
We first determine the week number of the date starting from the first Sunday of February. To do this I have used WEEKNUM()-WEEKNUM(02/01/SAMEYEAR) taking 1 day from the date to force week 1 as Excel begins counting from week 0 by default. Using IF() we state that if the outcome is 0 or less then add the result to 52, which will give us the correct result for dates in January as they produce negative values.
Edit - Very long formula but gives you the week of the quarter in Q1 W1 format:
=SUBSTITUTE(CONCATENATE("Q",INT(IF(WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1)<=0,52+WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1),WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1))/13)+(IF(INT(IF(WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1)<=0,52+WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1),WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1))-INT((IF(WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1)<=0,52+WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1),WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1))/13))*13)=0,0,1))," W",INT(IF(WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1)<=0,52+WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1),WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1))-INT((IF(WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1)<=0,52+WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1),WEEKNUM(A1)-WEEKNUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1)-1))/13))*13)),"W0","W1")
Apologies for the length, I tried multiple methods to try to find a neater solution, but this was all that I could get to work. It would be a lot neater if there were multiple columns used.
Use this formula:
=IF(A1>=IF(WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1),1)=1,DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1),DATE(YEAR(A1),2,7-WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1),1)+2)),ROUNDUP((A1-IF(WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1),1)=1,DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1),DATE(YEAR(A1),2,7-WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1),1)+2))+1)/7,0),ROUNDUP((A1-IF(WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,1),1)=1,DATE(YEAR(A1)-1,2,1),DATE(YEAR(A1)-1,2,7-WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1)-1,2,1),1)+2))+1)/7,0))
Way late to the party but was looking for the answer and found this thread. Ended up play around with the function myself and it's much easier to just deduct the dates; =WEEKNUM("date"- days you wish to offset)
Ex; If cell A1 holds my date, 2/1/2021 I wish to convert; =WEEKNUM(A1-31) result "1".

Excel function to determine the last Friday in a month

I'm looking for an Excel function to return the last Friday in a month for a given date.
ie: Any date in the month as input will give the date of the last Friday as output.
14-July-09 should give 31-July-09
7-March-05 should give 35-March-09
Building on #Toomas answer above, I had to make some amendments for Excel 2007, but came up with the following:
=EOMONTH(A1,0)-MOD(WEEKDAY(EOMONTH(A1,0))+1,7)
Which is assuming that the WEEKDAY returned for Friday is 6 and then applying a shifted MOD 7 to achieve the correct day.
Try this formula:
=IF(WEEKDAY(EOMONTH(A5;0);16)=7;EOMONTH(A5;0);EOMONTH(A5;0)-WEEKDAY(EOMONTH(A5;0);16))
Enter to A5 date value of which you are looking for the last Friday in a month.
The following formula achives this for a date in cell A1:
=DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,0)+MOD(-WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,0),2)-2,-7)
I came here looking for the formula to get the most recent Friday in the past which turned out to be =TODAY()-WEEKDAY(TODAY())-1
In case anyone needs to do this for next year (or future years):
=EOMONTH(DATE(YEAR(TODAY())+1,MONTH(TODAY()),1),0)-MOD(WEEKDAY(EOMONTH(DATE(YEAR(TODAY())+1,MONTH(TODAY()),1),0))+1,7)
Here's one that will show the last Friday of the current month.
And if the date is in the past it will show you next month's last Friday.
And if it's December right now, it'll show you next year's January's Friday.
=IF(DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())+1,0)+MOD(-WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())+1,0),2)-2,-7)>=TODAY(), DATE(IF(MONTH(TODAY())+1>12,YEAR(TODAY()+1),YEAR(TODAY())),MONTH(TODAY())+1,0)+MOD(-WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())+1,0),2)-2,-7), DATE(IF(MONTH(TODAY())=12,YEAR(TODAY())+1,YEAR(TODAY())),MONTH(IF(MONTH(TODAY())=12,1,MONTH(TODAY())))+1,0)+MOD(-WEEKDAY(DATE(IF(MONTH(TODAY())=12,YEAR(TODAY())+1,YEAR(TODAY())),MONTH(IF(MONTH(TODAY())=12,1,MONTH(TODAY())))+1,0),2)-2,-7))
You can try
=DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,1)-1+CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,1)-1),-2,-3,-4,-5,-6,0,-1)
to find the last friday of the month. Assumes A1 has the date.
Hey the formatting is outdated so ill show what I came up with:
=EOMONTH(A1;A2)-(WEEKDAY(EOMONTH(A1;A2);15)-1)
[A1] is an interval of months later, from [A2] the stating date, that the result date should be.
We have some equipment that need maintenance last Friday of the month, an number of months since last Maintenace.
EOMONTH(A1;A2): we find the date, of the last day, of target month.
WEEKDAY([Date];15): assign a number for day of the week.
[15] makes Friday the value 1 and Thursday the value 7.
so if the last day of the month is Friday, the calculation would be:
[Date]-(1-1) = [Date] therefor the date won't change.
[Date] in my original code example, is the last day of the target month: [A2] date + [A1] number of months later.
if the last day is Wednesday, we want it to subtract 5 days: [Date]-(6-1) = [Date]-5
As a sidenote:
=WORKDAY(A2+1;-1;[hollydays])
will round a date back to the earlier Workday if it lands in a weekend or holyday
[holyday] can be an area of cells with predefined dates to skip eg: [$C$1:$C$20].
$ is so the area won't change when you extend the function to other cells.
if you don't care about holydays use =WORKDAY(A2+1;-1)
Awesome! Basically, like trying to find the first or second Monday of the month,
=DATE(TheYear,5,1)+CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(DATE(TheYear,5,1)),1,0,6,5,4,3,2)
which returns the first Monday of the month, in this case May
but to find the last weekday of the month, in the formula, you start with the next month and subtract
=DATE(TheYear,6,1)-1+CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(DATE(TheYear,6,1)),-6,-5,-4,-3,-2,-1,0)
which returns the last Monday of May
I have a cell that I named TheYear, in which I enter the year I'm working with, but you can point to whatever cell you have the year you want (e.g. A1).
I don't know why the pointers to the days of the week are in reverse order but to find the day (e.g. Tuesday instead of Monday), change the order of those numbers but they have to stay in order. For example, 4th Thursday of November:
=DATE(TheYear,11,1)+21+CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(DATE(TheYear,11,1)),4,3,2,1,0,6,5)
=EOMONTH(TODAY(),0)-WEEKDAY(EOMONTH(TODAY(),0))-1
This gives the last Friday of this month. You can replace both instances of Today() with any date you like or a cell reference that has a date to get the last Friday in any other month.
=WORKDAY.INTL((EOMONTH(A4,0)+1),-1,"1111011")
