The JavaScript "busdateadd" function adds a specific number of business days to a given date.
- Syntax: busdateadd(datefield,business days to be added)
datefield could be a Standard Field or a Custom Field
It skips Saturday and Sunday and Canadian public holidays (not banking holidays).
- (A US version will be available at a later date).
This is not related to any SmartSimple calendar.
Impact: This allows a calculation in a custom field based on business days instead of real days.
Example, Lets say field frm.startdate.value = 07/11/2008,Friday
busdateadd(frm.startdate.value,1) returns 10/11/2008, Monday
frm.startdate is a standard field. To calculate using Custom Field use frm.cf_fieldid.value.
