    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    According to your description, I made a sample, and here is my solution.

    Data sample:

    Create a measure to calculate the total days between “start date” and “end date”.

     

    Total days =
DATEDIFF ( MAX ( 'Tabelle1'[start date] ), MAX ( 'Tabelle1'[end date] ), DAY ) + 1

     

    Create three measures to calculate days of every year.

     

    2022 =
DATEDIFF ( MAX ( 'Tabelle1'[start date] ), DATE ( 2022, 12, 31 ), DAY ) + 1

    2023 =
IF (
    MAX ( 'Tabelle1'[end date] ) > DATE ( 2022, 12, 31 ),
    DATEDIFF ( MAX ( 'Tabelle1'[start date] ), DATE ( 2023, 12, 31 ), DAY ) + 1 - 'Tabelle1'[2022]
)

    2024 =
IF (
    MAX ( 'Tabelle1'[end date] ) > DATE ( 2023, 12, 31 ),
    DATEDIFF ( MAX ( 'Tabelle1'[start date] ), MAX ( 'Tabelle1'[end date] ), DAY ) + 1 - 'Tabelle1'[2022] - 'Tabelle1'[2023]
)

     

    Create three measures to calculate the amount of each year.

     

    amount of 2022 =
DIVIDE ( MAX ( 'Tabelle1'[amount] ), 'Tabelle1'[Total days] ) * 'Tabelle1'[2022]

    amount of 2023 =
DIVIDE ( MAX ( 'Tabelle1'[amount] ), 'Tabelle1'[Total days] ) * 'Tabelle1'[2023]

    amount of 2024 =
DIVIDE ( MAX ( 'Tabelle1'[amount] ), 'Tabelle1'[Total days] ) * 'Tabelle1'[2024]

     

    Final output:

     

    I attach my sample below for your reference.
