    It should be:

     

    EnquiryTest = SUMX ( FILTER ( '_enquiries,' '_enquiries'[_tsg_clientid_value] = 'accounts[accountid']) &&
'_enquiries'[Date] => DATE(2018/8/1) &&
'_enquiries'[Date] =< DATE(2018/8/31), _enquiries[Amount (Enq)] )

    But, would need sample data to be sure.

    Shoot, sorry about that, I meant to use commas:

     

    EnquiryTest = SUMX ( FILTER ( '_enquiries,' '_enquiries'[_tsg_clientid_value] = 'accounts[accountid']) &&
'_enquiries'[Date] => DATE(2018,8,1) &&
'_enquiries'[Date] =< DATE(2018,8,31), _enquiries[Amount (Enq)] )

    EnqAmt =
    SUMX (
    FILTER ( _enquiries, _enquiries[_tsg_clientid_value] = accounts[accountid] && _enquiries[Date] >= DATE(2018,08,01) && _enquiries[Date] <= DATE(2018,08,31) ), _enquiries[Amount (Enq)]
    )

I am wanting a between dates filter.  I can't use the current month, because that won't work when the month changes.  I would like to see the hard coding of a between date range.  What would it look like with the beginning of August to the end of August.

    Sadly, I am getting the following error message:

     

    Too few arguments were passed to the DATE function. The minimum argument count for the function is 3.

     

    I have changed the / to , but that doesn't work.  If I change the month from 8 to 08 - it returns the same error.  Any thoughts?

        Thank you for all of the help, Greg.  I am still getting errors, but I have ordered some books to read over the weekend.
