Hello,

I need to include a timer in a process where, once the process is initiated, the user task will be available two business days later.

I have found the Timer process node, but how can configure it to work based on Business Days (excluding weekends and holidays)?

Review this information on the Intermediate Event - Timer Node:
forum.appian.com/.../Intermediate_Event_-_Timer.html

The node contains a "Delay until the date and time specified by this expression" radio button that, when selected, will run an expression to determine when the process should continue.
In the simplest case, today()+2 would give you a date two days after today. You can use Appian-provided functions like weekday() and date() to help you in creating a more complex custom expression that will determine the next start time for the process and avoid holidays and weekends.
