About This Feature

Overview

The DAYS360 function in WPS is used in multidimensional tables to calculate the number of days between two dates based on a 360-day year with 30-day months. It is suitable for finance, settlement cycles, and fixed-period tracking.

Core capabilities include:

  • Use DAYS360 in a formula field to calculate date intervals.
  • Open the function entry in the formula editor and fill in parameters in the required format.
  • Combine DAYS360 with other functions for more complete business logic.

Capability SummaryUse DAYS360 in a formula field inside a multidimensional table to calculate date differences with a 360-day convention and combine it with other functions.Excel provides the DAYS360 function to return the number of days between two dates based on a 360-day year and supports an optional method argument.Google Sheets provides the DAYS360 function with start date, end date, and an optional method argument.Notion database formulas support date calculations such as dateBetween, but do not provide a spreadsheet-style DAYS360 function with the same name.Acrobat focuses on calculated PDF form fields and expressions rather than spreadsheet-style DAYS360 functions.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: DAYS360 can be placed directly in a multidimensional table field and recalculated with each record update. Distinct: it fits workflows where date logic is managed as part of the table structure.Compared with WPS: Excel offers the same named function in a worksheet cell formula model that fits spreadsheet-based workbooks.Compared with WPS: Google Sheets also offers the same named function, mainly in an online spreadsheet cell formula model.Compared with WPS: Notion is better aligned with database property formulas, and date differences can be built, but the formula model is different from spreadsheet functions.Compared with WPS: Adobe centers on PDF form calculations rather than multidimensional table or spreadsheet function workflows.

Overall Conclusion
If your work is centered on record-based multidimensional tables and field-level automation, WPS DAYS360 fits that structure well. If you mainly build models in traditional spreadsheet cells, Excel and Google Sheets also provide the same named function, while Notion and Adobe are only partial alternatives for this use case.
