About This Feature

Overview

WORKDAY.INTL is a built-in date function in WPS Spreadsheet for calculating a target date based on working-day rules. After you enter a start date, a number of workdays, and optional weekend and holiday settings, the function returns the resulting date before or after the start date.

Core capabilities include:

Calculate a date after a specified number of workdays for schedules, delivery dates, and due dates.
Support custom weekend rules for different regions or shift arrangements.
Reference a holiday range so non-working dates are skipped automatically.
Work with nested formulas, cross-sheet references, and recalculation.

Capability Summary	Provides the WORKDAY.INTL function to return a target date based on a start date, workday count, custom weekend settings, and a holiday range.	Excel provides the WORKDAY.INTL function with custom weekend parameters and a holidays argument.	Google Sheets provides the WORKDAY.INTL function with weekend numbers or strings and a holidays argument.	Notion formulas support date functions such as dateAdd, dateBetween, and day, but the official help content does not show a native WORKDAY.INTL equivalent.	Acrobat help focuses on PDF creation, editing, and conversion rather than spreadsheet workday date functions.

Compared with WPS: Excel also provides a direct equivalent function for spreadsheet workflows.	Compared with WPS: Google Sheets also supports a direct equivalent function and fits browser-based collaboration.	Compared with WPS: Notion usually requires combining multiple date functions to build similar logic, so the formula setup is often longer.	Compared with WPS: Acrobat does not provide an equivalent spreadsheet function for this type of workday scheduling calculation.

Overall Conclusion: If your work depends on spreadsheet-based workday scheduling, delivery-date calculation, and holiday exclusion, WPS, Excel, and Google Sheets all provide direct function support. Notion is more suitable for database-style tracking, while Adobe Acrobat is centered on PDF workflows, so WPS Spreadsheet is a closer fit for this calculation scenario.
