var formula = "@BusinessDays(" + startdate + ";" + enddate + ";" + weekends + ";" + holidays + ")";

Solution

  • Date/time constants in Lotus formula language are enclosed in square brackets, which you can clearly see in the documentation for @BusinessDays. Try this:

    var formula = "@BusinessDays([" + startdate + "];[" + enddate + "];" + weekends + ";[" + holidays + "])";
return session.evaluate(formula);
