Exclude Weekends

[JJ]

How do I set up the calander to exclude weekends in my schedule calculation?

Est Start Date 04/01/2010

Leadtime = 5 days

Actual start date is 09/01/2010 which is a Saterday.
It would be great to change the act start dte to 08/01/2010 Friday.

Tx.

JJ,

What day would you want to return if the calculated start date was a Sunday?

Hi

Assuming you have the Analysis Toolpak loaded (Tools>Addin>Analysis Toolpak)
then with you starting date in A1
=workday(A1-1,5)
will return a Friday for dates falling on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday.
