How the Business Days Calculator Works

Business days are counted by skipping weekends and optional public holidays between two dates. QuickCalc lets you pick a country calendar so local observances are automatically excluded.

  • Counts weekdays only and subtracts configured holidays.
  • Shows a coloured bar for workdays, weekends and holidays.
  • Breaks out totals so you can justify schedules to stakeholders.

Counting rules

Starting from the first date, we iterate day by day and add to the business-day total only when the day is Monday–Friday and not on the selected holiday list. This mirrors how HR teams count service levels.

Holidays & countries

Choose a supported country to automatically exclude national holidays. You can still override weekends or include custom closures by toggling the relevant options before running the count.

Why it matters

Shipping timelines, payment terms and compliance deadlines are usually defined in business days. Having a transparent breakdown avoids disputes and keeps teams aligned on what the calendar really allows.
