Question

Hello I have defined a pause action for 5 days my SharePoint designer workflow after which a follow up e-mail is sent for the user. Now during the pause action i want to exclude the weekends(Saturday & Sunday) in those 5days if its encountered.So basically if my workflow starts on Friday then it must send a follow up e-mail on next Thursday.

Hi Vaman I am bit tentative regarding this whether this is possible or not. Please share solution if you found any. But if we have hosting option then we could write console application will use CSOM which will execute daily will check for item created today and calculate next 5 business days. But then we need to host exe file somwhere on machine where Internet is on.
