C sounds like it could work too, but not sure about real-time.

I definitely remember that we need to sort the data, and I think a!subtractDateTime() might be the best choice for that, but I need to double-check.

I'm a bit confused about a!customFieldDateDiff(). I feel like it could work, but I can't recall if it provides real-time data like we need.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think calworkdays() was mentioned as a potential option for calculating delivery times.

I think the function we need is a!subtractDateTime(), but I'm not completely sure if it handles business days correctly.
