Question

I have a sheet where there is a column called Actual Start and Actual Finish. I have the following formula providing the difference of "Hours of Effort" based on these two dates.

Formula: =NETWORKDAYS([Actual Start]35, [Actual Finish]35)

However, sometimes the Actual Finish column will not have a date, therefore how do I keep the original formula and enhance it where if no date is entered in the Actual Finish column, then a message can be displayed.

Thanks,

Hi Glenn,

Try something like this.

=IFERROR(NETWORKDAYS([Actual Start]@row; [Actual Finish]@row); "")

The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.

=IFERROR(NETWORKDAYS([Actual Start]@row, [Actual Finish]@row), "")

Depending on your country you’ll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.

Did it work?

I hope that helps!

Have a fantastic week!
