Today()
I have the following measure that occasionally throws an error I believe to be associated with the Today().
CurA =
AverageX(
CALCULATETABLE(
'FACT_PROD_CUM_VW',
FACT_PROD_CUM_VW[Prod Date] < DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY()),DAY(TODAY())-2), FACT_PROD_CUM_VW[Prod Date] > DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY()),DAY(TODAY())-8)
),
[Gross Oil]
)

Anonymous , When you subract days from date , like this DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY()),DAY(TODAY())-8)
On the 8th on month this will error as date do not take 0 in day .
Try like DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY()),DAY(TODAY())) -8
I have logged an issue sometime back on this.
