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.CustomBusinessHour.next_bday attribute is used to move the given timestamp to the next business day.
Syntax: pandas.tseries.offsets.CustomBusinessHour.next_bday Parameter : None Returns : move to next business day
Example #1: Use pandas.tseries.offsets.CustomBusinessHour.next_bday attribute to move the given timestamp to the next business day.
Python3
# importing pandas as pdimport pandas as pd# Creating Timestampts = pd.Timestamp('2019-4-23 11:15:00')# Create an offsetcbh = pd.tseries.offsets.CustomBusinessHour(n = 2, weekmask = 'Mon Tue Wed Thu', start ='12:00')# Print the Timestampprint(ts)# Print the Offsetprint(cbh) |
Output : 
Now we will add the 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 offset to the given timestampnew_timestamp = ts + cbh# Print the updated timestampprint(new_timestamp)# move the passed timestamp to the # next business dayresult = ts + cbh.next_bday# print the resultprint(result) |
Output : 
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. Example #2: Use pandas.tseries.offsets.CustomBusinessHour.next_bday attribute to move the given timestamp to the next business day.
Python3
# importing pandas as pdimport pandas as pd# Creating Timestampts = pd.Timestamp('2019-4-23 11:15:00')# Create an offsetcbh = pd.tseries.offsets.CustomBusinessHour(start ='07:00', end ='14:00')# Print the Timestampprint(ts)# Print the Offsetprint(cbh) |
Output : 
Now we will add the 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 offset to the given timestampnew_timestamp = ts + cbh# Print the updated timestampprint(new_timestamp)# move the passed timestamp to the # next business dayresult = ts + cbh.next_bday# print the resultprint(result) |
Output : 
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.
