    Ok. I wrote the formula for a measure actually. 

    Please use the following for calculated column:

    rdateCalc =
VAR __Difference =
    DATEDIFF ( 'SomeDateTable'[rdate], TODAY (), DAY )
VAR __Result =
    IF (
        __Difference > 913,
        1,
        IF (
            __Difference < 913
                && __Difference > 0,
            3,
            IF ( __Difference < 0 && __Difference > -180, 2, BLANK () )
        )
    )
RETURN
    __Result
