Python | Pandas tseries.offsets.BusinessHour.next_bday

Dateoffsets are a standard kind of date increment used for a date range in Pandas. It works exactly like relativedelta in terms of the keyword args we pass in. DateOffsets work as follows, each offset specify a set of dates that conform to the DateOffset. For example, Bday defines this set to be the set of dates that are weekdays (M-F). DateOffsets can be created to move dates forward a given number of valid dates. For example, Bday(2) can be added to a date to move it two business days forward. If the date does not start on a valid date, first it is moved to a valid date and then offset is created. Pandas tseries.offsets.BusinessHour.next_bday function is used for moving to next business day.

Syntax: pandas.tseries.offsets.BusinessHour.next_bday Parameter : None Returns : offset

Example #1: Use pandas.tseries.offsets.BusinessHour.next_bday function to move the given timestamp to next business day.

Python3

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd
 
# Creating Timestamp
ts = pd.Timestamp('2019-10-10 07:15:11')
 
# Create an offset of 5 Business hours
bh = pd.tseries.offsets.BusinessHour(n = 5)
 
# Print the Timestamp
print(ts)
 
# Print the Offset
print(bh)

Output : Now we will add the Business hour offset to the given timestamp object to increment the datetime value. We will also move the given timestamp to the next business day.

Python3

# Adding the Business hour offset to the given timestamp
new_timestamp = ts + bh
 
# Print the updated timestamp
print(new_timestamp)
 
# Move the timestamp to next
# business day
result = ts + bh.next_bday
 
# Print the result
print(result)

Output : As we can see in the output, we have successfully created an offset of 5 Business hours and added it to the given timestamp. We have also moved the given timestamp to the next business day. Example #2: Use pandas.tseries.offsets.BusinessHour() function to create an offset of 10 days and 5 Business hours.

Python3

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd
 
# Creating Timestamp
ts = pd.Timestamp('2019-10-10 07:15:11')
 
# Create an offset
bh = pd.tseries.offsets.BusinessHour(offset = datetime.timedelta(days = 10, hours = 10))
 
# Print the Timestamp
print(ts)
 
# Print the Offset
print(bh)

Output : Now we will add the Business hour offset to the given timestamp object to increment the datetime value. We will also move the given timestamp to the next business day.

Python3

# Adding the Business hour offset to the given timestamp
new_timestamp = ts + bh
 
# Print the updated timestamp
print(new_timestamp)
 
# Move the timestamp to next
# business day
result = ts + bh.next_bday
 
# Print the result
print(result)

Output : Note : Even though we have passed 10 days to the function, notice how the business hour value is wrapping around. As we can see in the output, we have successfully created an offset and added it to the given timestamp. We have also moved the given timestamp to the next business day.
