Hello 

Last month I posted to this Group regarding the below:

I have been given a project, which is:  To work out the number of days it takes to turn around a given job. 

I am getting there…..

What I need help with now is: The workers do not work on weekends – so it would be unfair to count those days in the number of days taken to turn around their job.  Does anybody know whether it's possible in FM (Pro 11 Advanced v3) to minus weekend days  from between dates and/or how to do it?

Many Thanks 
Jay
