Calculate hours based off business days in a month

Hello!

I am working with some data to calculate FTE hours based off business days in a given month (excluding weekends and standard US holidays).

My data is layed out as follows -

For example

PRID	ProjectID	ResourceID	AllocYear	AllocJan	AllocFeb	AllocMar	AllocApr	AllocMay	AllocJun	AllocJul	AllocAug	AllocSep	AllocOct	AllocNov	AllocDec
6002198	5728091	5181017	2017	32	32	36.8	32	35.2	35.2	16	0	0	0	0	0

I need to determine based off the current date(7/20/17) - what is the correct month variable to use(AllocJul) and what year (AllocYear) to use.

and then calculate the percentage of FTE hours based on the following

Business days in current month (July 2017 has 20 days) and multiply that (20 *8) 8 being the standard number of hours a full time FTE works per day and then divide that by the number in the current Alloc month column.

It would be (20*8) = 160 and 16 for AllocJul in the example above

Would be 160/16 = 10

Is there a way in sas to do this?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Use an Array:

data want (keep=prid projectid resourceid alloc);
set have;
where allocyear = year(today);
array months {*} allocjan-allocdec;
alloc = months{month(today())};
run;
