FAQ
- Q: How does it compute working days?
- A: It iterates each calendar day between the dates, counting those where getDay() is not 0 (Sunday) or 6 (Saturday), mirroring Excel’s NETWORKDAYS.
- Q: Can I exclude holidays?
- A: Yes—the "Exclude holidays" box is present; however, in this version, it does not actively subtract any listed holidays from the working‑day total as no holiday list is provided for computation.
- Q: What if I enter the end date before the start date?
- A: The tool automatically reverses the order for calculation and displays a negative sign to indicate the reverse interval for the duration values. Working days will also reflect the inverted range.
- Q: Does it handle time zones?
- A: Dates are interpreted in the browser’s local time zone. The calculation is purely date‑based, focusing on full day differences, and thus is not significantly affected by hour-level time zone offsets for duration, but rather by the local date interpretation.
