Calculated Expression Troubleshooting

Hi all,

 

I'm sure I'm missing something super simple but I'm trying to use a calculated field, formatted as a number, to pull in the difference between our planned start date and actual completion date on our task reporting form for tasks named review. The formula I'm using is: 

 

IF(CONTAINS({name},"review"),WEEKDAYDIFF({plannedStartDate},{actualCompletionDate}),"")
 
but it isn't working as expected. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to further troubleshoot?
