Last Buisness day of the month

[Brent Fanguy]

I have a scheduled task in windows that runs an autoit script during business hours daily.   I do not want to run this section of code if it is the last business day of the month (would be great if the logic included holidays but i am ok if it does not.

' something like If Now() <> LastBuisnessWorkDay Then

$Run = "C:\Infor\Vmfg654\vmaplutl.exe -d " & $Database & " -u SYSADM -p yourpsw"

Run($Run)

WinWaitActive("Costing Utilities - Infor ERP VE")

Send("!f")

Sleep(1000)

Send("n")

WinActivate ("Costing Utilities", "OK")

WinWaitActive("Costing Utilities","OK")

ControlClick("Costing Utilities", "OK", "Button1") WinClose("Costing Utilities")

'End If

@Brent Fanguy welcome to the forum. Are you just looking for the last weekday of the month? If so there are a number of examples on the forum. Here is one that I use:

#include <Date.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

MsgBox($MB_OK, "Last WeekDay", _lastWorkDay(4, 2016))

Func _lastWorkDay($iMonth, $iYear)
    Local $iLastWeekDay
    Local $iDaysInMonth = _DateDaysInMonth($iYear, $iMonth)
    Local $iWeekday = _DateToDayOfWeekISO($iYear, $iMonth, $iDaysInMonth)

    Switch $iWeekday
        Case 6, 7
            $iLastWeekDay = $iMonth & "/" & $iDaysInMonth - (($iWeekday = 7) ? 2 : 1) & "/" & $iYear
        Case Else
            $iLastWeekDay = $iMonth & "/" & $iDaysInMonth & "/" & $iYear
    EndSwitch

    Return $iLastWeekDay
EndFunc

This thread may be helpful in setting up an array to determine if a date is a holiday:

thanks, guys.

what am i doing wrong?

#include <Date.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

'MsgBox($MB_OK, "Last WeekDay", _lastWorkDay(2, 2016))

MsgBox($MB_OK, "Last WeekDay", _lastWorkDay(@MON, @YEAR))

$date = @MON & "/" & @MDAY & "/" & @YEAR
MsgBox($MB_OK, "current date", $date)

If $date = _lastWorkDay(@MON, @YEAR)) Then    ' i get an error on this line  - it does not like my If $date
   MsgBox($MB_OK,"=")
Else
   MsgBox($MB_OK,"<>")
EndIf

Func _lastWorkDay($iMonth, $iYear)
    Local $iLastWeekDay
    Local $iDaysInMonth = _DateDaysInMonth($iYear, $iMonth)
    Local $iWeekday = _DateToDayOfWeekISO($iYear, $iMonth, $iDaysInMonth)

    Switch $iWeekday
        Case 6, 7
            $iLastWeekDay = $iMonth & "/" & $iDaysInMonth - (($iWeekday = 7) ? 2 : 1) & "/" & $iYear
        Case Else
            $iLastWeekDay = $iMonth & "/" & $iDaysInMonth & "/" & $iYear
    EndSwitch

    Return $iLastWeekDay
EndFunc

Thanks guys, this is what i am using in case anyone else stumbles across this:

#include <Date.au3>

$date = @MON & "/" & @MDAY & "/" & @YEAR
If $date <> _lastWorkDay(@MON, @YEAR) Then
   $Run = "C:\Infor\Vmfg654\vmaplutl.exe"
   Run($Run)
EndIf

Func _lastWorkDay($iMonth, $iYear)
    Local $iLastWeekDay
    Local $iDaysInMonth = _DateDaysInMonth($iYear, $iMonth)
    Local $iWeekday = _DateToDayOfWeekISO($iYear, $iMonth, $iDaysInMonth)
    Switch $iWeekday
        Case 6, 7
            $iLastWeekDay = $iMonth & "/" & $iDaysInMonth - (($iWeekday = 7) ? 2 : 1) & "/" & $iYear
        Case Else
            $iLastWeekDay = $iMonth & "/" & $iDaysInMonth & "/" & $iYear
    EndSwitch
    Return $iLastWeekDay
EndFunc

BrentFanGuy, this topic has interested me since I read the initial thread this morning.  I have put together some code that will also check for some holidays (based off the code I referenced upthread) if you're still interested.  I left the original check for Easter out because it adds a lot of lines to the code.  I have just been toying with this in my spare time today so there could be some errors in there, but it seems to be working fine for me.

And how to deal worldwide with holidays ;-). Holidays differ per country and even within a country based on religion people have different free days.
