index=sales sourcetype=csv source= sales_new.csv date_month=september date_wday IN ("monday", "tuesday", "wednesday", "thursday", "friday")
| stats sum(sales) as dailysales by date_mday
| sort - dailysales limit=1

This will give you one single day with the most sales that is a weekday.

When you do say a business day is "best"? Any specific field that you sum/count?

Assuming you want the highest count per day over a month period. Try this

 index=sales sourcetype=csv  source= sales_new.csv
| timechart span=1d count
