Team,

Unless my eyes deceive me, the formula to calculate which day (Sunday - Saturday) of the week a date falls on doesn't work. Below is an example. When the program divided 39668 by 7, the remainder came up to be "8" versus 0 – 6

According to the copybook, this is what it says. Please advise. If this is broken, then how many programs in production that use this routine are broken as well?

xxxxxxxx
