Calculate business days
PhpCalendarDatePhp Problem Overview
I need a method for adding "business days" in PHP. For example, Friday 12/5 + 3 business days = Wednesday 12/10.
At a minimum I need the code to understand weekends, but ideally it should account for US federal holidays as well. I'm sure I could come up with a solution by brute force if necessary, but I'm hoping there's a more elegant approach out there. Anyone?
Thanks.

Here's a function from the user comments on the date() function page in the PHP manual. It's an improvement of an earlier function in the comments that adds support for leap years.
Enter the starting and ending dates, along with an array of any holidays that might be in between, and it returns the working days as an integer:
<?php
//The function returns the no. of business days between two dates and it skips the holidays
function getWorkingDays($startDate,$endDate,$holidays){
// do strtotime calculations just once
$endDate = strtotime($endDate);
$startDate = strtotime($startDate);
//The total number of days between the two dates. We compute the no. of seconds and divide it to 60*60*24
//We add one to inlude both dates in the interval.
$days = ($endDate - $startDate) / 86400 + 1;
$no_full_weeks = floor($days / 7);
$no_remaining_days = fmod($days, 7);
//It will return 1 if it's Monday,.. ,7 for Sunday
$the_first_day_of_week = date("N", $startDate);
$the_last_day_of_week = date("N", $endDate);
//---->The two can be equal in leap years when february has 29 days, the equal sign is added here
//In the first case the whole interval is within a week, in the second case the interval falls in two weeks.
if ($the_first_day_of_week <= $the_last_day_of_week) {
if ($the_first_day_of_week <= 6 && 6 <= $the_last_day_of_week) $no_remaining_days--;
if ($the_first_day_of_week <= 7 && 7 <= $the_last_day_of_week) $no_remaining_days--;
}
else {
// (edit by Tokes to fix an edge case where the start day was a Sunday
// and the end day was NOT a Saturday)
// the day of the week for start is later than the day of the week for end
if ($the_first_day_of_week == 7) {
// if the start date is a Sunday, then we definitely subtract 1 day
$no_remaining_days--;
if ($the_last_day_of_week == 6) {
// if the end date is a Saturday, then we subtract another day
$no_remaining_days--;
}
}
else {
// the start date was a Saturday (or earlier), and the end date was (Mon..Fri)
// so we skip an entire weekend and subtract 2 days
$no_remaining_days -= 2;
}
}
//The no. of business days is: (number of weeks between the two dates) * (5 working days) + the remainder
//---->february in none leap years gave a remainder of 0 but still calculated weekends between first and last day, this is one way to fix it
$workingDays = $no_full_weeks * 5;
if ($no_remaining_days > 0 )
{
$workingDays += $no_remaining_days;
}
//We subtract the holidays
foreach($holidays as $holiday){
$time_stamp=strtotime($holiday);
//If the holiday doesn't fall in weekend
if ($startDate <= $time_stamp && $time_stamp <= $endDate && date("N",$time_stamp) != 6 && date("N",$time_stamp) != 7)
$workingDays--;
}
return $workingDays;
}
//Example:
$holidays=array("2008-12-25","2008-12-26","2009-01-01");
echo getWorkingDays("2008-12-22","2009-01-02",$holidays)
// => will return 7
?>

Get the number of working days without holidays between two dates :
###Use example:
echo number_of_working_days('2013-12-23', '2013-12-29');
###Output:
3
###Function:
function number_of_working_days($from, $to) {
$workingDays = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; # date format = N (1 = Monday, ...)
$holidayDays = ['*-12-25', '*-01-01', '2013-12-23']; # variable and fixed holidays
$from = new DateTime($from);
$to = new DateTime($to);
$to->modify('+1 day');
$interval = new DateInterval('P1D');
$periods = new DatePeriod($from, $interval, $to);
$days = 0;
foreach ($periods as $period) {
if (!in_array($period->format('N'), $workingDays)) continue;
if (in_array($period->format('Y-m-d'), $holidayDays)) continue;
if (in_array($period->format('*-m-d'), $holidayDays)) continue;
$days++;
}
return $days;
}

There are some args for the date() function that should help. If you check date("w") it will give you a number for the day of the week, from 0 for Sunday through 6 for Saturday. So.. maybe something like..
$busDays = 3;
$day = date("w");
if( $day > 2 && $day <= 5 ) { /* if between Wed and Fri */
$day += 2; /* add 2 more days for weekend */
}
$day += $busDays;
This is just a rough example of one possibility..

Holiday calculation is non-standard in each State. I am writing a bank application which I need some hard business rules for but can still only get a rough standard.
/**
* National American Holidays
* @param string $year
* @return array
*/
public static function getNationalAmericanHolidays($year) {
// January 1 - New Year’s Day (Observed)
// Calc Last Monday in May - Memorial Day strtotime("last Monday of May 2011");
// July 4 Independence Day
// First monday in september - Labor Day strtotime("first Monday of September 2011")
// November 11 - Veterans’ Day (Observed)
// Fourth Thursday in November Thanksgiving strtotime("fourth Thursday of November 2011");
// December 25 - Christmas Day
$bankHolidays = array(
$year . "-01-01" // New Years
, "". date("Y-m-d",strtotime("last Monday of May " . $year) ) // Memorial Day
, $year . "-07-04" // Independence Day (corrected)
, "". date("Y-m-d",strtotime("first Monday of September " . $year) ) // Labor Day
, $year . "-11-11" // Veterans Day
, "". date("Y-m-d",strtotime("fourth Thursday of November " . $year) ) // Thanksgiving
, $year . "-12-25" // XMAS
);
return $bankHolidays;

Here is a function for adding buisness days to a date
function add_business_days($startdate,$buisnessdays,$holidays,$dateformat){
$i=1;
$dayx = strtotime($startdate);
while($i < $buisnessdays){
$day = date('N',$dayx);
$date = date('Y-m-d',$dayx);
if($day < 6 && !in_array($date,$holidays))$i++;
$dayx = strtotime($date.' +1 day');
}
return date($dateformat,$dayx);
}
//Example
date_default_timezone_set('Europe\London');
$startdate = '2012-01-08';
$holidays=array("2012-01-10");
echo '<p>Start date: '.date('r',strtotime( $startdate));
echo '<p>'.add_business_days($startdate,7,$holidays,'r');
Another post mentions getWorkingDays (from php.net comments and included here) but I think it breaks if you start on a Sunday and finish on a work day.
Using the following (you'll need to include the getWorkingDays function from previous post)
date_default_timezone_set('Europe\London');
//Example:
$holidays = array('2012-01-10');
$startDate = '2012-01-08';
$endDate = '2012-01-13';
echo getWorkingDays( $startDate,$endDate,$holidays);
Gives the result as 5 not 4
Sun, 08 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000 weekend
Mon, 09 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000
Tue, 10 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000 holiday
Wed, 11 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000
Thu, 12 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000
Fri, 13 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000
The following function was used to generate the above.
function get_working_days($startDate,$endDate,$holidays){
$debug = true;
$work = 0;
$nowork = 0;
$dayx = strtotime($startDate);
$endx = strtotime($endDate);
if($debug){
echo '<h1>get_working_days</h1>';
echo 'startDate: '.date('r',strtotime( $startDate)).'<br>';
echo 'endDate: '.date('r',strtotime( $endDate)).'<br>';
var_dump($holidays);
echo '<p>Go to work...';
}
while($dayx <= $endx){
$day = date('N',$dayx);
$date = date('Y-m-d',$dayx);
if($debug)echo '<br />'.date('r',$dayx).' ';
if($day > 5 || in_array($date,$holidays)){
$nowork++;
if($debug){
if($day > 5)echo 'weekend';
else echo 'holiday';
}

echo 'Work: '.$work.'<br>';
echo 'Work + no work: '.($nowork+$work).'<br>';
echo 'All seconds / seconds in a day: '.floatval(strtotime($endDate)-strtotime($startDate))/floatval(24*60*60);
}
return $work;
}
date_default_timezone_set('Europe\London');
//Example:
$holidays=array("2012-01-10");
$startDate = '2012-01-08';
$endDate = '2012-01-13';
//broken
echo getWorkingDays( $startDate,$endDate,$holidays);
//works
echo get_working_days( $startDate,$endDate,$holidays);
Bring on the holidays...
Solution 7 - Php
You can try this function which is more simple.
function getWorkingDays($startDate, $endDate)
{
$begin = strtotime($startDate);
$end = strtotime($endDate);
if ($begin > $end) {
return 0;
} else {
$no_days = 0;
while ($begin <= $end) {
$what_day = date("N", $begin);
if (!in_array($what_day, [6,7]) ) // 6 and 7 are weekend
$no_days++;
$begin += 86400; // +1 day
};
return $no_days;
}
}
Solution 8 - Php
My version based on the work by @mcgrailm... tweaked because the report needed to be reviewed within 3 business days, and if submitted on a weekend, the counting would start on the following Monday:
function business_days_add($start_date, $business_days, $holidays = array()) {
$current_date = strtotime($start_date);
$business_days = intval($business_days); // Decrement does not work on strings
while ($business_days > 0) {
if (date('N', $current_date) < 6 && !in_array(date('Y-m-d', $current_date), $holidays)) {
$business_days--;
}
if ($business_days > 0) {
$current_date = strtotime('+1 day', $current_date);
}
}
return $current_date;
}
And working out the difference of two dates in terms of business days:
function business_days_diff($start_date, $end_date, $holidays = array()) {
$business_days = 0;
$current_date = strtotime($start_date);
$end_date = strtotime($end_date);
while ($current_date <= $end_date) {
if (date('N', $current_date) < 6 && !in_array(date('Y-m-d', $current_date), $holidays)) {
$business_days++;
}
if ($current_date <= $end_date) {
$current_date = strtotime('+1 day', $current_date);
}
}
return $business_days;
}
As a note, everyone who is using 86400, or 246060, please don't... your forgetting time changes from winter/summer time, where a day it not exactly 24 hours. While it's a little slower the strtotime('+1 day', $timestamp), it much more reliable.
Solution 9 - Php
A function to add or subtract business days from a given date, this doesn't account for holidays.
function dateFromBusinessDays($days, $dateTime=null) {
$dateTime = is_null($dateTime) ? time() : $dateTime;
$_day = 0;
$_direction = $days == 0 ? 0 : intval($days/abs($days));
$_day_value = (60 * 60 * 24);
while($_day !== $days) {
$dateTime += $_direction * $_day_value;
$_day_w = date("w", $dateTime);
if ($_day_w > 0 && $_day_w < 6) {
$_day += $_direction * 1;
}
}
return $dateTime;
}
use like so...
echo date("m/d/Y", dateFromBusinessDays(-7));
echo date("m/d/Y", dateFromBusinessDays(3, time() + 3*60*60*24));

This code snippet is very easy to calculate business day without week end and holidays:
function getWorkingDays($startDate,$endDate,$offdays,$holidays){
$endDate = strtotime($endDate);
$startDate = strtotime($startDate);
$days = ($endDate - $startDate) / 86400 + 1;
$counter=0;
for ($i = 1; $i <= $days; $i++) {
$the_first_day_of_week = date("N", $startDate);
$startDate+=86400;
if (!in_array($the_first_day_of_week, $offdays) && !in_array(date("Y-m-
d",$startDate), $holidays)) {
$counter++;
}
}
return $counter;
}
//example to use
$holidays=array("2017-07-03","2017-07-20");
$offdays=array(5,6);//weekend days Monday=1 .... Sunday=7
echo getWorkingDays("2017-01-01","2017-12-31",$offdays,$holidays)
Solution 13 - Php
Here is another solution without for loop for each day.
$from = new DateTime($first_date);
$to = new DateTime($second_date);
$to->modify('+1 day');
$interval = $from->diff($to);
$days = $interval->format('%a');
$extra_days = fmod($days, 7);
$workdays = ( ( $days - $extra_days ) / 7 ) * 5;
$first_day = date('N', strtotime($first_date));
$last_day = date('N', strtotime("1 day", strtotime($second_date)));
$extra = 0;
if($first_day > $last_day) {
if($first_day == 7) {
$first_day = 6;
}
$extra = (6 - $first_day) + ($last_day - 1);
if($extra < 0) {
$extra = $extra * -1;
}
}
if($last_day > $first_day) {
$extra = $last_day - $first_day;
}
$days = $workdays + $extra
Solution 14 - Php
For holidays, make an array of days in some format that date() can produce. Example:
// I know, these aren't holidays
$holidays = array(
'Jan 2',
'Feb 3',
'Mar 5',
'Apr 7',
// ...
);
Then use the in_array() and date() functions to check if the timestamp represents a holiday:
$day_of_year = date('M j', $timestamp);
$is_holiday = in_array($day_of_year, $holidays);

$enddate = strtotime($startdate);
$day = date('N',$enddate);
while($buisnessdays > 1){
$enddate = strtotime(date('Y-m-d',$enddate).' +1 day');

}
The additional holiday considerations can be made using variations of the above by doing the following. Note! assure all the timestamps are the same time of the day (i.e. midnight).
Make an array of holiday dates (as unixtimestamps) i.e.:
$holidays = array_flip(strtotime('2011-01-01'),strtotime('2011-12-25'));
Modify line :
if (date('N', $timestamp)<6) $bDays--;
to be :
if (date('N', $timestamp)<6 && !isset($holidays[$timestamp])) $bDays--;
Done!

Solution 21 - Php
calculate workdays between two dates including holidays and custom workweek
The answer is not that trivial - thus my suggestion would be to use a class where you can configure more than relying on simplistic function (or assuming a fixed locale and culture). To get the date after a certain number of workdays you'll:
- need to specify what weekdays you'll be working (default to MON-FRI) - the class allows you to enable or disable each weekday individually.
- need to know that you need to consider public holidays (country and state) to be accurate
- e.g. https://github.com/khatfield/php-HolidayLibrary/blob/master/Holidays.class.php
- or hardcode the data: e.g. from http://www.feiertagskalender.ch/?hl=en
- or pay for data-API http://www.timeanddate.com/services/api/holiday-api.html

This is another solution, it is nearly 25% faster than checking holidays with in_array:

* @param string $startDate -- Start date of the range (included), formatted as Y-m-d.
* @param string $endDate -- End date of the range (included), formatted as Y-m-d.
* @param array(string) $holidayDates -- OPTIONAL. Array of holidays dates, formatted as Y-m-d. (e.g. array("2016-08-15", "2016-12-25"))
* @return int -- Number of working days.

$dateRange = new DatePeriod(new DateTime($startDate), new DateInterval('P1D'), (new DateTime($endDate))->modify("+1day"));
foreach ($dateRange as $dr) { if($dr->format("N")<6){$workingDays[]=$dr->format("Y-m-d");} }
return count(array_diff($workingDays, $holidayDates));

I know I'm late to the party, but I use this old set of functions by Marcos J. Montes for figuring out holidays and business days. He took the time to add an algorithm from 1876 for Easter and he added all the major US holidays. This can easily be updated for other countries.

The add_business_days has a small bug. Try the following with the existing function and the output will be a Saturday.
Startdate = Friday Business days to add = 1 Holidays array = Add date for the following Monday.
I have fixed that in my function below.
function add_business_days($startdate, $buisnessdays, $holidays = array(), $dateformat = 'Y-m-d'){
$i= 1;
$dayx= strtotime($startdate);
$buisnessdays= ceil($buisnessdays);
while($i < $buisnessdays)
{
$day= date('N',$dayx);
$date= date('Y-m-d',$dayx);
if($day < 6 && !in_array($date,$holidays))
$i++;
$dayx= strtotime($date.' +1 day');
}
## If the calculated day falls on a weekend or is a holiday, then add days to the next business day
$day= date('N',$dayx);
$date= date('Y-m-d',$dayx);
while($day >= 6 || in_array($date,$holidays))
{
$dayx= strtotime($date.' +1 day');
$day= date('N',$dayx);
$date= date('Y-m-d',$dayx);

Thanks to Bobbin, mcgrailm, Tony, James Pasta and a few others who posted here. I had written my own function to add business days to a date, but modified it with some code I found here. This will handle the start date being on a weekend/holiday. This will also handle business hours. I added some comments and break up the code to make it easier to read.
<?php
function count_business_days($date, $days, $holidays) {
$date = strtotime($date);
for ($i = 1; $i <= intval($days); $i++) { //Loops each day count
//First, find the next available weekday because this might be a weekend/holiday
while (date('N', $date) >= 6 || in_array(date('Y-m-d', $date), $holidays)){
$date = strtotime(date('Y-m-d',$date).' +1 day');
}
//Now that we know we have a business day, add 1 day to it
$date = strtotime(date('Y-m-d',$date).' +1 day');
//If this day that was previously added falls on a weekend/holiday, then find the next business day
while (date('N', $date) >= 6 || in_array(date('Y-m-d', $date), $holidays)){
$date = strtotime(date('Y-m-d',$date).' +1 day');
}
}
return date('Y-m-d', $date);
}
//Also add in the code from Tony and James Pasta to handle holidays...

Personally, I think this is a cleaner and more concise solution:
function onlyWorkDays( $d ) {
$holidays = array('2013-12-25','2013-12-31','2014-01-01','2014-01-20','2014-02-17','2014-05-26','2014-07-04','2014-09-01','2014-10-13','2014-11-11','2014-11-27','2014-12-25','2014-12-31');
while (in_array($d->format("Y-m-d"), $holidays)) { // HOLIDAYS
$d->sub(new DateInterval("P1D"));
}
if ($d->format("w") == 6) { // SATURDAY
$d->sub(new DateInterval("P1D"));
}
if ($d->format("w") == 0) { // SUNDAY
$d->sub(new DateInterval("P2D"));
}
return $d;

Just send the proposed new date to this function.

$diff = $date2 - $date1;
$days_diff = intval($diff / (3600 * 24));
$current_day_of_week = intval(date("N", $date1));
$business_days = 0;
for($i = 1; $i <= $days_diff; $i++){

If you need to get how much time was between two dates you can use https://github.com/maximnara/business-days-counter.
It's works simply but only with laravel now $diffInSeconds = $this->datesCounter->getDifferenceInSeconds(Carbon::create(2019, 1, 1), Carbon::now(), DateCounter::COUNTRY_FR);
It doesn't counts public holidays and weekends and you can set working interval, for example from 9 to 18 with launch hour or no.
Or if you need just weekends and you use Carbon you can use built in function:
$date1 = Carbon::create(2019, 1, 1)->endOfDay();
$date2 = $dt->copy()->startOfDay();
$diff = $date1->diffFiltered(CarbonInterval::minute(), function(Carbon $date) {
return !$date->isWeekend();
}, $date2, true);
But it will foreach every minute in interval, for bit intervals it can take a while.

Although this question has over 35 answers at the time of writing, there is a better solution to this problem.
@flamingLogos provided an answer which is based on Mathematics and doesn't contain any loops. That solution provides a time complexity of Θ(1). However, the math behind it is pretty complex especially the leap year handling.
@Glavić provided a good solution that is minimal and elegant. But it doesn't preform the calculation in a constant time, so it could produce a denial of service (DOS) attack or at least timeout if used with large periods like 10 or 100 of years since it loops on 1 day interval.
So I propose a mathematical approach that have constant time and yet very readable.
The idea is to count how many days to have complete weeks.
<?php
function getWorkingHours($start_date, $end_date) {
// validate input
if(!validateDate($start_date) || !validateDate($end_date)) return ['error' => 'Invalid Date'];
if($end_date < $start_date) return ['error' => 'End date must be greater than or equal Start date'];
//We save timezone and switch to UTC to prevent issues
$old_timezone = date_default_timezone_get();
date_default_timezone_set("UTC");
$startDate = strtotime($start_date);
$endDate = strtotime($end_date);
//The total number of days between the two dates. We compute the no. of seconds and divide it to 60*60*24
//We add one to include both dates in the interval.
$days = ($endDate - $startDate) / 86400 + 1;
$no_full_weeks = ceil($days / 7);
//we get only missing days count to complete full weeks
//we take modulo 7 in case it was already full weeks
$no_of_missing_days = (7 - ($days % 7)) % 7;
$workingDays = $no_full_weeks * 5;
//Next we remove the working days we added, this loop will have max of 6 iterations.
for ($i = 1; $i <= $no_of_missing_days; $i++){
if(date('N', $endDate + $i * 86400) < 6) $workingDays--;
}
$holidays = getHolidays(date('Y', $startDate), date('Y', $endDate));
//We subtract the holidays
foreach($holidays as $holiday){
$time_stamp=strtotime($holiday);
//If the holiday doesn't fall in weekend
if ($startDate <= $time_stamp && $time_stamp <= $endDate && date("N",$time_stamp) != 6 && date("N",$time_stamp) != 7)
$workingDays--;
}
date_default_timezone_set($old_timezone);
return ['days' => $workingDays];
}
The input to the function are in the format of Y-m-d in php or yyyy-mm-dd in general date format.
The get holiday function will return an array of holiday dates starting from start year and until end year.

I stumbled upon another question that asked a similar question and started writing code that solved his problem, but then found this question. Since I already have the code, I figure it won't be of any harm to post it here, someone will probably find it useful. I believe it is better/more flexible than most answers to this question.
My class is available here: https://gist.github.com/jurchiks/62ee8c4267dde48a296a8c2ab18965df
And its usage is as follows:
use Cake\Chronos\Date;
$weekdayCalculator = new WeekdayCalculator();
$weekdayCalculator->addSpecialWorkday(new Date('2022-01-08')); // Override Saturday as a workday.
// Sunday stays a normal holiday as usual.
$weekdayCalculator->addSpecialHoliday(new Date('2022-01-10')); // Override the following Monday as a holiday.
// As a result, we've shifted the workday one day back.
var_dump(
$weekdayCalculator->isWorkday(new Date('2022-01-08')), // Returns TRUE - we manually set this date as a workday.
$weekdayCalculator->isHoliday(new Date('2022-01-09')), // Returns TRUE - normal holiday.
$weekdayCalculator->getNextWorkday(new Date('2022-01-07')), // Returns Date(2022-01-08).
$weekdayCalculator->getNextWorkday(new Date('2022-01-08')), // Returns Date(2022-01-11) - 9, 10 = holidays, 11 = normal workday.
$weekdayCalculator->getNextHoliday(new Date('2022-01-08')), // Returns Date(2022-01-09).
$weekdayCalculator->countDays(new Date('2022-01-01'), new Date('2022-02-01')), // Returns int(31) - January has 31 days, 02-01 is excluded.
$weekdayCalculator->countWorkdays(new Date('2022-01-01'), new Date('2022-02-01')), // Returns int(21).
$weekdayCalculator->countHolidays(new Date('2022-01-01'), new Date('2022-02-01')), // Returns int(10).
$weekdayCalculator->getDays(new Date('2022-01-01'), new Date('2022-02-01')), // Returns a Generator instance for all days between specified dates.
$weekdayCalculator->getWorkdays(new Date('2022-01-01'), new Date('2022-02-01')), // Returns a Generator instance for all workdays.
$weekdayCalculator->getHolidays(new Date('2022-01-01'), new Date('2022-02-01')), // Returns a Generator instance for all holidays.
iterator_to_array($weekdayCalculator->getWorkdays(new Date('2022-01-01'), new Date('2022-02-01'))), // Returns an array of 21 Date instances.
);
You will still have to write your own code to add your country's specific work/holidays, but there are examples of how to do that in other answers here, and besides, that is not quite in the scope of a class like this.
Yes, it is dependent on cakephp/chronos because it's a very nice immutable-first PHP DateTime alternative; I much prefer it to Carbon, which is mutable-first.

I figured you might want to include a list of UK holidays, so here's that:

I just get my function working based on Bobbin and mcgrailm code, adding some things that worked perfect to me.
function add_business_days($startdate,$buisnessdays,$holidays,$dateformat){
$enddate = strtotime($startdate);
$day = date('N',$enddate);
while($buisnessdays > 0){ // compatible with 1 businessday if I'll need it
$enddate = strtotime(date('Y-m-d',$enddate).' +1 day');
$day = date('N',$enddate);
if($day < 6 && !in_array(date('Y-m-d',$enddate),$holidays))$buisnessdays--;
}
return date($dateformat,$enddate);
}
// as a parameter in in_array function we should use endate formated to
// compare correctly with the holidays array.
Solution 35 - Php
There is a Formula:
number_of_days - math_round_down(10 * (number_of_days / (business_days_in_a_week * days_in_a_week)))
Tada! you calculate the numbers of business day, in a month, in a week, in a whatever you want.
math_round_down () is a hypothetical method, which implements a mathematical function that rounds down.
