Stop Counting NETWORKDAY after Done Box is checked

adrian

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping this is easy to read, it is hard to explain.

I am trying to STOP counting days from commencement date of a project once the DONE box is checked.

I have managed to make it work without using NETWORKDAY, using this formula

=IF(Done1 = 1, [Last Updated]1 - [Commencement Date]1, TODAY() - [Commencement Date]1)

but I would rather count only Work Days.

 

I tried this:

=IF(Done14 = 1, NETWORKDAY([Last Updated]14 - [Commencement Date]14), IF(Done14 = 0, NETWORKDAY(TODAY() - [Commencement Date]14))))

Also tried this:

=IF(Done14 = 1, NETWORKDAY([Last Updated]14 - [Commencement Date]14), NETWORKDAY(TODAY() - [Commencement Date]14))))

and similar variations but it returns an error.  Can anybody assist? Thanks in advance!

Why are you using today? couldn't it simply be:

 

if(done14 = 1,networkdays([Commencement Date]14,[Last Updated]14))

Create a "Done on" column (the date it was completed). This will drive the rest of it based off of your "Commencement" column. These are the columns I have referenced in my formulas (obviously you'll need to update the column names to reflect whatever you have):

Count________Commencement________Done on

In the "Count" column, enter:

=IF(ISBLANK(Commencement@row), "", IF(ISDATE([Done On]@row), NETWORKDAYS(Commencement@row, [Done On]@row), IF(ISBLANK([Done On]@row), NETWORKDAYS(Commencement@row, TODAY()))))

The "Commencement" column is a date column reflecting your commencement date.

The "Done on" column is a date column where you will enter the completion date.

If you use this, you can replace your Done checkbox column with the Done on date column.
