Sample 36133: Finding the first business day of the month
The sample code on the Full Code tab takes a SAS date variable and finds the first business day of that month. It uses the INTNX function to advance to the first day of the month. Then it uses the WEEKDAY function to determine the day of the week. If the first day is a Saturday or Sunday, then it advances the FIRST variable by 2 or 1, respectively. No holidays are considered.
