Question 1

What exactly counts as a business day here?

Accepted Answer

Monday through Friday between your selected dates, minus any holiday dates you explicitly add. Saturdays and Sundays never count. If you need calendar days including weekends, use the Date Difference Calculator instead.

Question 2

How do I handle a floating holiday like Thanksgiving?

Accepted Answer

Calculate the date for that year (U.S. Thanksgiving is the fourth Thursday in November) and add it with the holiday picker. The chip list lets you remove a date if you added it by mistake.

Question 3

Why not auto-fill federal holidays for me?

Accepted Answer

Employers, states, and countries disagree on observances. Auto-removing the wrong holiday is worse than asking you to tag the closures your policy actually recognizes. Banks, courts, and factories each publish their own calendars.
