However it is not really working as intended So probably there is a logical error there somewhere The formula stops at the first true result. I tried your formula but the result differs.
When i apply yours, it shows 18days instead. It seems to skip holidays. For our internal reporting reasons we reflect delays with holidays included — Calypsys. I'm not sure I follow. Are you saying that you count non-working days Saturday and Sunday when calculating variance? Were the resource scheduled to work during Saturday and Sunday? In our case we do not use resource planning at all.
It is all based on calendar planning. The expression to convert to a duration. The units used to express the duration. If durationunits is not specified, the default value is the type of units specified in the Duration is entered in option on the Schedule tab of the Options dialog box Tools menu. The durationunits can be one of the following pjFormatUnit constants:. Returns a Variant Integer specifying a whole number between 0 and 59, inclusive, representing the second of the minute.
Second time. Returns a Variant String representation of a number. Str number. Returns a Variant String converted as specified. The sum of values specifying the type of conversion to perform. The system LocaleID is the default. Returns a Variant Date containing the time for a specific hour, minute, and second. TimeSerial hour , minute , second.
Number between 0 A. Returns a Variant Date containing the time. TimeValue time. However, time can also be any expression that represents a time in that range. Returns the numbers contained in a string as a numeric value of appropriate type. Val string. Returns a Variant Integer containing a whole number representing the day of the week. Weekday date [, firstdayofweek ].
If not specified, Sunday is assumed. Returns a Variant Integer containing a whole number representing the year. Year date. Returns a Variant Date containing the current system date. Returns a Variant Date containing a date to which a specified time interval has been added.
DateAdd interval , number , date. It can be positive to get dates in the future or negative to get dates in the past. Returns a Variant Long specifying the number of time intervals between two specified dates. DateDiff interval , date1 , date2 [, firstdayofweek [, firstweekofyear ]].
Two dates you want to use in the calculation. If not specified, the first week is assumed to be the week in which January 1 occurs. Returns a Variant Integer containing the specified part of a given date. DatePart interval , date [, firstdayofweek [, firstweekofyear ]]. If not specified, the first week is assumed to be in the week in which January 1 occurs. Returns a Boolean value indicating whether an expression can be converted to a date. IsDate expression. Returns a Variant Date specifying the current date and time according your computer's system date and time.
Adds a duration to a date to return a new date. ProjDateAdd date, duration, calendar. The original date to which duration is added. The duration to add to date. The calendar to use when calculating the new date.
If calendar is not specified, the default for the current resource is the resource calendar, or for the current task, the task calendar or the standard calendar if there is no task calendar.
For Project Server, the standard calendar will be used, regardless of which calendar is specified in the calendar string. When you use this function in a formula created in Project Web App and compare it with the same formula created in Project Professional, you should test to ensure the results are what you expect.
Returns the duration between two dates in minutes. ProjDateDiff date1, date2, calendar. The date used as the beginning of the duration. The date used as the end of the duration. The calendar to use when calculating the duration. If calendar is not specified, the default for the current resource is the resource calendar, or for the current task, the task calendar or the standard calendar if there is no task calendar For Project Server, the standard calendar will be used, regardless of which calendar is specified in the calendar string.
Returns the date that precedes another date by a specified duration. ProjDateSub date, duration, calendar. The original date from which duration is subtracted.
The duration to subtract from date. The calendar to use when calculating the date difference. Returns the date value of an expression. ProjDateValue expression. The expression to be represented as a date. Returns the number of minutes in a duration. ProjDurValue duration. The duration to be expressed in minutes. Returns a Variant Date indicating the current system time. Returns a Single representing the number of seconds elapsed since midnight.
General functions. Selects and returns a value from a list of arguments. Choose index , choice-1 [, choice-2 , Returns one of two parts, depending on the evaluation of an expression. IIf expr , truepart , falsepart. Returns a Boolean value indicating whether an expression can be evaluated as a number. IsNumeric expression. Returns a Boolean value that indicates whether an expression contains no valid data Null. IsNull expression. Evaluates a list of expressions and returns a Variant value or an expression associated with the first expression in the list that is True.
Switch expr-1 , value-1 [, expr-2 , value-2 , Math functions. Returns a value of the same type that is passed to it specifying the absolute value of a number.
Abs number. If number contains Null , Null is returned; if it is an uninitialized variable, zero is returned. Returns a Double specifying the arc tangent of a number. Atn number. Returns a Double specifying the cosine of an angle. Cos number. Returns a Double specifying e the base of natural logarithms raised to a power. Exp number. Returns the integer portion of a number. If the number is negative, returns the first negative integer equal to or greater than number.

Returns a Variant String containing an expression formatted according to instructions contained in a format expression. Format expression [, format [, firstdayofweek [, firstweekofyear ]]]. Returns a Variant Long specifying the position of the first occurrence of one string within another. Instr [ start , ] string1 , string2 [, compare ]. If omitted, search begins at the first character position. If start contains Null , an error occurs.
The start argument is required if compare is specified. If compare is Null, an error occurs. If compare is omitted, the Option compare setting determines the type of comparison. Returns a String that has been converted to lowercase. LCase string.
