Sequential mode can model documented contract stages, but one calculated end date does not establish the next legal trigger. Enable Court Rules Mode for England & Wales CPR counting, Northern Ireland court rules, or Scottish court-calendar-based calculations. Review the selected rule set and assumptions before relying on the result.
UK Working Day Calculator Features & Tools

Jurisdiction-Aware Calendars
Accurate bank holidays for England & Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. Each region has unique holidays (St Andrew's Day, Battle of the Boyne) handled automatically.
