How to use this tool
Enter the target and the starting reference date, checking any example value already in the form. Use a different rule when the question concerns working days rather than calendar days.
Results and examples
From 2026-09-05 to 2026-09-12 the interval is 7 days, or about one week. The signed target-minus-reference value gives direction, while the absolute week conversion gives duration.
Limitations
- Overnight stays and inclusive attendance counts may answer different questions.
- Weeks are the day difference divided by seven, not a calendar week number.
