How to Count Only Weekdays Between Any Two Dates in Tableau (No Excel Needed)

Stop doing this in Excel. Tableau has a cleaner, more powerful way to count only the weekdays between any two dates. And once you see how it works,you'll use it everywhere.

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to build a dynamic date range selector  using parameter actions, then strip out Saturdays and Sundays using DATEPART weekday logic wrapped in a Level of Detail expression, so you always get an accurate weekday count, no matter the range.

This is one of the most common questions I get asked, and the solution is simpler than you think.
