I picked up the functions below for adding working days (excluding holidays) to a date based on a lag.
This has been working perfectly until now. I have stepped through the code and the dates look to be formatting in the same way and everything else looks to be doing what it should (however I am not an expert).

The issue I am having is that 1 June 2020 is a public holiday. I am in New Zealand where we format dates as dd/mm/yyyy
When I set DelDateDoors to be 02/06/2020 and the Lag = 2, I get a production date of 27/05/2020 as expected, however if I set DelDateDoors to 03/06/2020 I get a Production date of 29/05/2020 which to me means it is not excluding the public holiday on the 1st.

I initially thought it may be that the day and month were being switched at some point but I didn't see it happening on the step through. We also have a public holiday on the 2nd february (02/06/2020) so maybe that is why the above works for a delivery date of 02/06/2020.

I have spent much time reading forums and stepping through many examples to see if I can diagnose the issue myself but have had no luck yet. I have recently added a date dimension table to my database so would even be open to a better way of doing this calculation if that's what I should do.

Any help is much appreciated!

Code:
Private Sub DelDateDoors_AfterUpdate()

On Error GoTo cmdProdDate_ClickErr
Me.Lag = Me.DeliveryType.Column(1)
Me.ProductionDate = DateAddWorkdays(-Me.Lag, Me.DelDateDoors, False)
    Exit Sub
cmdProdDate_ClickErr:
    MsgBox ("Click Error " & Err.Number & " " & Err.Description)
End Sub


Public Function NotWorkday(dteDate As Date) As Boolean
'strDate1 = Format(datDate, "\#yyyy\/mm\/dd\#")
If Weekday(dteDate, vbMonday) > 5 Then

     NotWorkday = True

     Exit Function

ElseIf Not IsNull(DLookup("[HolidayDate]", "tblHoliday", "[HolidayDate] = #" & Format(dteDate, "yyyy\/mm\/dd") & "#")) Then

    NotWorkday = True

    Exit Function

End If

NotWorkday = False

End Function

Hi. Just checking, are you sure June 1st is listed in the Holidays table?

it is better to re-create the function, instead of debugging:
Code:
Public Function DateAddWorkdays( _
    ByVal lngNumber As Long, _
    ByVal datDate As Date) _
    As Date
    Dim subtrahend As Integer
    
If lngNumber < 0 Or lngNumber > 0 Then
    subtrahend = IIf(lngNumber > 0, 1, -1)
    While NotWorkday(datDate)
        datDate = DateAdd("d", subtrahend, datDate)
    Wend
    Do While lngNumber <> 0
        datDate = DateAdd("d", subtrahend, datDate)
        If NotWorkday(datDate) = False Then
            lngNumber = lngNumber + (subtrahend * (-1))
        End If
    Loop
Else
    While NotWorkday(datDate)
        datDate = DateAdd("d", 1, datDate)
    Wend
End If
DateAddWorkdays = datDate

End Function


Public Function NotWorkday(dteDate As Date) As Boolean
'strDate1 = Format(datDate, "\#yyyy\/mm\/dd\#")
NotWorkday = False
If Weekday(dteDate, vbMonday) > 5 Then
    NotWorkday = True
ElseIf DCount("1", "tblHoliday", "HolidayDate = #" & Format(dteDate, "mm/dd/yyyy") & "#") > 0 Then
    NotWorkday = True
End If
End Function

Thanks for this, I have tried this code but it is now not picking up any of the holidays. I tried different formats in the DCount but to no avail

change this to:
Code:
Public Function NotWorkday(dteDate As Date) As Boolean
'strDate1 = Format(datDate, "\#yyyy\/mm\/dd\#")
NotWorkday = False
If Weekday(dteDate, vbMonday) > 5 Then
    NotWorkday = True
ElseIf DCount("1", "tblHoliday", "DateValue(HolidayDate) = #" & Format(dteDate, "mm/dd/yyyy") & "#") > 0 Then
    NotWorkday = True
End If
End Function
