How to calculate no of business days between two date?

[Community Alums]

Hi Team,

could you please help to find number of business days between two dates in ServiceNow?

@Community Alums 

you can use Schedule and handle it

I am also sharing a script

var diff;
var startDate = new GlideDateTime('startDate');
var endDate = new GlideDateTime('endDate');
var sched = new GlideSchedule('38fa64edc0a8016400f4a5724b0434b8'); // sysId of the schedule
diff = sched.duration(startDate,endDate).getDurationValue();
gs.addInfoMessage(diff);

Also check the docs
