b59dfb12ba9c whatever issue they might have, they had 15 years to fix it since this issue was reported. Things like this, and the overall terrible UX of most of their products, convinced me over the years that there are some bigger fundamental issues within Atlassian. Most of us here are devs, and we all have the feeling that this feature could be implemented as a quick win, yet it does not happen. dmeyer could you please tell us what we are missing, so we could understand why the reluctance to do this? With honestly is usually the best way to manage expectations.

I'm thinking now that there's some fundamental design issue within the Jira storage system that stops Atlassian from doing this. 

This seems such a simple request that there has to be a reason it's not been resolved. Or am I being too kind?

It's been open for more than 10 years! please address this issue,

IMO a team day out should affect performance stats. That way you can see the impact that the team day out has on your performance.

It would also be great to have an equivalent of Excel's NetWorkDays function - so we can also filter out public holidays, and have a custom filter of non-working days.

That would allow us to filter out days when the team wasn't available for work. e.g. if retro, demo and planning were all on the same day and took all day, it's not time we'd expect to count against queue time for work. Another example is that if we had a team day out, then we wouldn't want to affect performance stats. 

Would be very useful having this, we keep track of how long it's been since a ticket update in the Service Desk project due to SLAs, but since the SLAs pause over the weekend filtering by not updated within so many days doesn't work for us, always end up with stuff being updated on the Friday but then showing up in the 'No Update' list on the Monday

I recently discovered business days functions in automation and they were very useful!

Like I was setting up issue due date to now.plusBusinessDays(2) 

We need same capability in JQL! So many ppl asking the community how to filter something for X business days. Consider them to be votes!

Today is Friday. The JQL

createdDate >= startOfDay(-4d) ORDER BY created ASC

returns 182 issues, but the JQL code suggested previously

createdDate >= startOfDay() OR
 (createdDate >= startOfDay("-1d") AND createdDate < startOfDay() AND createdDate >= startOfWeek("+1d") AND createdDate < startOfWeek("+4d")) OR
 (createdDate >= startOfWeek("-2d") AND createdDate < startOfWeek("-1d") AND createdDate >= startOfDay("-3d") AND createdDate < startOfDay("-2d"))

returns only 8 issues, which have been created today. So this does not seems to work for me.

This may work for some people:

createdDate >= startOfDay() OR
(createdDate >= startOfDay("-1d") AND createdDate < startOfDay() AND createdDate >= startOfWeek("+1d") AND createdDate < startOfWeek("+4d")) OR
(createdDate >= startOfWeek("-2d") AND createdDate < startOfWeek("-1d") AND createdDate >= startOfDay("-3d") AND createdDate < startOfDay("-2d"))
