Hi I;m trying to create a Maternity Leave calculator, If I have a due date and I want to start my maternity Leave 14 days before due date, how can I do?I know if I do the due date - 14 I got it, but what about if the due date is on a Saturday or Sunday and I want my Maternity Leave start on the following Monday?
And what about the return to work day?I know that I have 26 weeks from the start of My Maternity, same as above my Maternity end on a Saturday or Sunday and I want my Return to work start on the following Monday?
Thanks

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
This formula will either give you the same date if its a weekday in A1 or the following Monday if a weekend date is placed in A1:

=A1+CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(A1),1,0,0,0,0,0,2)

Thanks a lot and what about if I want to keep the cell blank if the due date is not entered and If I want to subtract from the due date 14 days?

I put the below but it does not work, the due date is placed in b6

=IF(B6="","",B6-14,B6+choose(weekday(B6),1,0,0,0,0,0,2))
Thanks

That would be

=IF(A1="","",A1-14+CHOOSE(WEEKDAY(A1-14),1,0,0,0,0,0,2))
