How does Workfront calculate months in durations?

This has confused me for a while.  In my latest example, I have a task with an As Soon As Possible constraint.  That gives it a start date of April 25, 2023.  I input a duration of 6 months.  The way I count, that means it should finish on October 25, 2023, but Workfront calculated October 9, 2023.  

Any ideas what's going on?  The only thing I can come up with is Workfront is calculating 6 x (4 weeks) instead of 6 months by calendar date.

Hi @chloewy 

Please check with schedule (user or project), may be weekend added as working days.

Mvh

Thank you for the idea @kundanism.  My company only has two schedules, and neither of them include weekends.  I also don't have this problem when I input days or weeks, only months.
