[Fidel Castro Armario]

Add support for Israeli weekend to "addDaysSkippingWeekends()" and "subtractDatesSkippingWeekends()" parser functions.

Israeli weekend is on Friday and Saturday.

[Fidel Castro Armario]

The following functions supporting custom weekend definition have been implemented in version 2.2.7_beta_2:

• addTimeSkippingWeekends(number t, number timeToBeAdded, time_zone, number beginning_of_weekend, number end_of_weekend) : number
• addDaysSkippingWeekends(number t, number n, time_zone, number beginning_of_weekend, number end_of_weekend) : number
• subtractDatesSkippingWeekends(number minuend_date, number subtrahend_date, time_zone, number beginning_of_weekend, number end_of_weekend) : number

Parameters begin_of_weekend and end_of_weekend take values: {MONDAY}, {TUESDAY}, ... {SUNDAY}

Some usage example with Israeli weekend:

1) Adding 12 hours to Current date and time using Israeli weekend:

addTimeSkippingWeekends({00057}, 12*{HOUR}, LOCAL, {FRIDAY}, {SATURDAY})

2) Adding 10 workdays to Due date using Israeli weekend:

addDaysSkippingWeekends({00012}, 10, LOCAL, {FRIDAY}, {SATURDAY})

3) Calculating the worktime from Creation to Resolution using Israeli weekend:

subtractDatesSkippingWeekends({00112}, {00009}, LOCAL, {FRIDAY}, {SATURDAY})

Since version 2.2.39, JIRA Workflow Toolbox supports Custom Schedules, and you can do all you are doing now using addTimeSkippingWeekends () and subtractDatesSkippingWeekends () functions, and much much more.

I recommend you to take a look at it. You will be able to do amazing things using it.
