I am trying to calculate business days between two dates in Oracle select. I got to the point when my calculation gives most results correct for given dates (I compare it with NETWORKDAYS in excel) but sometimes it varies from 2 days to -2 days - and I don't know why...
Here's my code:
SELECT
((to_char(CompleteDate,'J') - to_char(InstallDate,'J'))+1) - (((to_char(CompleteDate,'WW')+ (52 * ((to_char(CompleteDate,'YYYY') - to_char(InstallDate,'YYYY'))))) - to_char(InstallDate,'WW'))*2) as BusinessDays
FROM TABLE
Thanks!
The solution, finally:
SELECT OrderNumber, InstallDate, CompleteDate,
(TRUNC(CompleteDate) - TRUNC(InstallDate) ) +1 -
((((TRUNC(CompleteDate,'D'))-(TRUNC(InstallDate,'D')))/7)*2) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SUN' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SAT' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as BusinessDays
FROM Orders
ORDER BY OrderNumber;
Thanks for all your responses !
I took into account all the different approaches discussed above and came up with a simple query that gives us the number of working days in each month of the year between two dates:
WITH test_data AS
(
SELECT TO_DATE('01-JAN-14') AS start_date,
TO_DATE('31-DEC-14') AS end_date
FROM dual
),
all_dates AS
(
SELECT td.start_date, td.end_date, td.start_date + LEVEL-1 as week_day
FROM test_data td
CONNECT BY td.start_date + LEVEL-1 <= td.end_date)
SELECT TO_CHAR(week_day, 'MON'), COUNT(*)
FROM all_dates
WHERE to_char(week_day, 'dy', 'nls_date_language=AMERICAN') NOT IN ('sun' , 'sat')
GROUP BY TO_CHAR(week_day, 'MON');
Please feel free to modify the query as needed.
Try this:
with holidays as
(
select d from (
select minDate + level -1 d
from (select min(submitDate) minDate, max (completeDate) maxDate
from t)
connect by level <= maxDate - mindate + 1)
where to_char(d, 'dy', 'nls_date_language=AMERICAN') not in ('sun' , 'sat')
)
select t.OrderNo, t.submitDate, t.completeDate, count(*) businessDays
from t join holidays h on h.d between t.submitDate and t.completeDate
group by t.OrderNo, t.submitDate, t.completeDate
order by orderno
I see that marked final solution is not correct always. Suppose, InstallDate is 1st of the month (if falls on Saturday) and CompleteDate is 16th of the month (if falls on Sunday)
In that case, actual Business Days is 10 but the marked query result will give the answer as 12. So, we have to treat this type of cases too, which I used
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SAT' AND TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SUN' THEN 2 ELSE 0 END
line to handle it.
SELECT OrderNumber, InstallDate, CompleteDate,
(TRUNC(CompleteDate) - TRUNC(InstallDate) ) +1 -
((((TRUNC(CompleteDate,'D'))-(TRUNC(InstallDate,'D')))/7)*2) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SUN' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SAT' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) -
(CASE WHEN TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SAT' AND TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'DY','nls_date_language=english')='SUN' THEN 2 ELSE 0 END)as BusinessDays
FROM Orders
ORDER BY OrderNumber;
I changed my example to more readable and to return count of bus. days between. I do not know why you need 'J'- Julian format. All it takes is start/Install and end/Complete dates. You will get correct number of days between 2 dates using this. Replace my dates with yours, add NLS if needed...:
SELECT Count(*) BusDaysBtwn
FROM
(
SELECT TO_DATE('2013-02-18', 'YYYY-MM-DD') + LEVEL-1 InstallDate -- MON or any other day
, TO_DATE('2013-02-25', 'YYYY-MM-DD') CompleteDate -- MON or any other day
, TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('2013-02-18', 'YYYY-MM-DD') + LEVEL-1, 'DY') InstallDay -- day of week
FROM dual
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= (TO_DATE('2013-02-25', 'YYYY-MM-DD') - TO_DATE('2013-02-18', 'YYYY-MM-DD')) -- end_date - start_date
)
WHERE InstallDay NOT IN ('SAT', 'SUN')

The accepted solution is quite close but seems wrong in some cases (e.g., 2/1/2015 through 2-28/2015 or 5/1/2015 through 5/31/2015). Here's a refined version...
end_date-begin_date+1 /* total days */
- TRUNC(2*(end_date-begin_date+1)/7) /* weekend days in whole weeks */
- (CASE
WHEN TO_CHAR(begin_date,'D') = 1 AND REMAINDER(end_date-begin_date+1,7) > 0 THEN 1
WHEN TO_CHAR(begin_date,'D') = 8 - REMAINDER(end_date-begin_date+1,7) THEN 1
WHEN TO_CHAR(begin_date,'D') > 8 - REMAINDER(end_date-begin_date+1,7) THEN 2
ELSE 0
END) /* weekend days in partial week */
AS business_days
The part that handles the multiples of 7 (whole weeks) is good. But, when considering the partial week portion, it depends on both the day-of-week offset and the number of days in the partial portion, according to the following matrix...
654321
1N 111111
2M 100000
3T 210000
4W 221000
5R 222100
6F 222210
7S 222221
To just remove sundays and saturdays you can use this
SELECT Base_DateDiff
- (floor((Base_DateDiff + 0 + Start_WeekDay) / 7))
- (floor((Base_DateDiff + 1 + Start_WeekDay) / 7))
FROM (SELECT 1 + TRUNC(InstallDate) - TRUNC(InstallDate, 'IW') Start_WeekDay
, CompleteDate - InstallDate + 1 Base_DateDiff
FROM TABLE) a
Base_DateDiff counts the number of days between the two dates(floor((Base_DateDiff + 0 + Start_WeekDay) / 7)) counts the number of sundays(floor((Base_DateDiff + 1 + Start_WeekDay) / 7)) counts the number of saturdays
1 + TRUNC(InstallDate) - TRUNC(InstallDate, 'IW') get 1 for mondays to 7 for sunday
This query can be used to go backward N days from the given date (business days only)
For example, go backward 15 days from 2017-05-17:
select date_point, closest_saturday - (15 - offset + floor((15 - offset) / 6) * 2) from(
select date_point,
closest_saturday,
(case
when weekday_num > 1 then
weekday_num - 2
else
0
end) offset
from (
select to_date('2017-05-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd') date_point,
to_date('2017-05-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd') - to_char(to_date('2017-05-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd'), 'D') closest_saturday,
to_char(to_date('2017-05-17', 'yyyy-mm-dd'), 'D') weekday_num
from dual
))
Some brief explanation: suppose we want to go backward N days from a given date - Find the closest Saturday that is less than or equal to the given date. - From the closest Saturday, go back ward (N - offset) days. offset is the number of business days between the closest Saturday and the given date (excluding the given date).
*To go back M days from a Saturday (business days only), use this formula DateOfMonthOfTheSaturday - [M + Floor(M / 6) * 2]

Here you go...
- First check how many days you got in the holiday table, excluding weekend days.
Get business days (MON to FRI) between the 2 dates and after that subtract the holiday days.
create or replace FUNCTION calculate_business_days (p_start_date IN DATE, p_end_date IN DATE) RETURN NUMBER IS v_holidays NUMBER; v_start_date DATE := TRUNC (p_start_date); v_end_date DATE := TRUNC (p_end_date); BEGIN IF v_end_date >= v_start_date THEN SELECT COUNT (*) INTO v_holidays FROM holidays WHERE day BETWEEN v_start_date AND v_end_date AND day NOT IN ( SELECT hol.day FROM holidays hol WHERE MOD(TO_CHAR(hol.day, 'J'), 7) + 1 IN (6, 7) ); RETURN GREATEST (NEXT_DAY (v_start_date, 'MON') - v_start_date - 2, 0) + ( ( NEXT_DAY (v_end_date, 'MON') - NEXT_DAY (v_start_date, 'MON') ) / 7 ) * 5 - GREATEST (NEXT_DAY (v_end_date, 'MON') - v_end_date - 3, 0) - v_holidays; ELSE RETURN NULL; END IF; END calculate_business_days;
After that you can test it out, like:
select
calculate_business_days('21-AUG-2013','28-AUG-2013') as business_days
from dual;
There is another easier way, using connect by and dual...
with t as (select to_date('30-sep-2013') end_date, trunc(sysdate) start_date from dual)select count(1) from dual, t where to_char(t.start_date + level, 'D') not in (1,7) connect by t.start_date + level <= t.end_date;
with connect by you get all the dates from start_date till the end_date. Then you can exclude the dates you don't need and count only the needed.
This would return business days:
(CompleteDate-InstallDate)-2*FLOOR((CompleteDate-InstallDate)/7)-
DECODE(SIGN(TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'D')-
TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'D')),-1,2,0)+DECODE(TO_CHAR(CompleteDate,'D'),7,1,0)-
DECODE(TO_CHAR(InstallDate,'D'),7,1,0) as BusinessDays,
