Hey Mohit,

So what happens to Tuesday task ? It gets assigned in the same day before the task of Monday which has been assigned to Wednesday ? Can you extend the sample data to inlcude the 2nd week as well so we can understand the logic

Hey Mohit,

So what happens to Tuesday task? Does it get assigned on the same day before the task of Monday which has been assigned to Wednesday? Can you extend the sample data to include the 2nd week as well so we can understand the logic

"So here task "A" I have to complete on 2nd Jul and " B" on 3rd Jul and so on but when I see Task " F" that comes on Sat and Task "G" on Sunday but that task I have to complete on Mon which is 9th Jul.
so I have to just skip the SAT and SUN but in continues date order."

Day	Task	Date	Result
Mon	A	2-Jul-18	2-Jul-18
Tue	B	3-Jul-18	3-Jul-18
Wed	C	4-Jul-18	4-Jul-18
Thu	D	5-Jul-18	5-Jul-18
Fri	E	6-Jul-18	6-Jul-18
Sat	F	7-Jul-18	9-Jul-18	Task F has to complete on 7th but on 7th we have SAT so this task has to move to Next Monday.
Sun	G	8-Jul-18	10-Jul-18	Task G have to complete on 8th but on 8th we have SUN so this task has to move to Next Tuesday
Mon	H	9-Jul-18	11-Jul-18	for Monday my date should be Wednesday
Tue	I	10-Jul-18	12-Jul-18
Wed	J	11-Jul-18	13-Jul-18
Thu	K	12-Jul-18	16-Jul-18
Fri	L	13-Jul-18	17-Jul-18
Sat	M	14-Jul-18	18-Jul-18	Same here
Sun	N	15-Jul-18	19-Jul-18	Same here
Mon	O	16-Jul-18	20-Jul-18
Tue	P	17-Jul-18	23-Jul-18
Wed	Q	18-Jul-18	24-Jul-18

Ok, maybe the easiest way to do it is identify the first date in column D then copy the below formula

Book1
	A	B	C	D	E	F	G
1	Day	Task	Date	Result		Date Day	Result Day
2	Mon	A	02-Jul-18	02-Jul-18		Mon	Mon
3	Tue	B	03-Jul-18	03-Jul-18		Tue	Tue
4	Wed	C	04-Jul-18	04-Jul-18		Wed	Wed
5	Thu	D	05-Jul-18	05-Jul-18		Thu	Thu
6	Fri	E	06-Jul-18	06-Jul-18		Fri	Fri
7	Sat	F	07-Jul-18	09-Jul-18		Sat	Mon

I think my above suggestion is not correct as it is not considering the dates in column C. Again, use the below forumla after manually setting up the first date in column D

Book1
	A	B	C	D	E	F	G
1	Day	Task	Date	Result		Date Day	Result Day
2	Mon	A	02-Jul-18	02-Jul-18		Mon	Mon
3	Tue	B	03-Jul-18	03-Jul-18		Tue	Tue
4	Wed	C	04-Jul-18	04-Jul-18		Wed	Wed
5	Thu	D	05-Jul-18	05-Jul-18		Thu	Thu
6	Fri	E	06-Jul-18	06-Jul-18		Fri	Fri
7	Sat	F	07-Jul-18	09-Jul-18		Sat	Mon

[mse330]

If you want the first cell to be picked up by the formula instead of manual, use the below

=IFERROR(IF(WORKDAY(D1,1)>=C2,WORKDAY(D1,1),IF(OR(WEEKDAY(C2)=1,WEEKDAY(C2)=7),WORKDAY(C2,1),C2)),IF(OR(WEEKDAY(C2)=1,WEEKDAY(C2)=7),WORKDAY(C2,1),C2))
