NETWORKDAYS Function

We can use the NETWORKDAYS Function along with other functions to calculate the number of workdays left in a month or year.

The EOMONTH Function returns the last day of a given month. It can be nested in the NETWORKDAYS Function to find the number of workdays left in a month like this:

=NETWORKDAYS(B3,EOMONTH(B3,0))

Workdays Left in Month

Note: The NETWORKDAYS Function takes ‘Saturday’ and ‘Sunday’ as weekend. You can use the NETWORKDAYS.INTL Function to customise weekend days.

Workdays Left in Month from Today

If you want to find the number of workdays left in the current month starting with today, you can use the TODAY Function as the input date:

=NETWORKDAYS(TODAY(),EOMONTH(TODAY(),0))

Month using TODAY

Workdays Left in Year

To calculate the number of workdays left in a year, we can use the NETWORKDAYS Function:

=NETWORKDAYS(B3,DATE(YEAR(B3),12,31))

Workdays Left in Year

Here we’ve defined the end date as the last day of the year, using the DATE and YEAR Functions.

Workdays left in Year from Today

To calculate the number of workdays left in the current year starting today, use TODAY as the start date:
