    Am not sure this is what you expect ....Please let me know if you need something else  :)

     

    Adding & "Days" at the end of your formula will solve the problem.

     

    ART = ABS(DATEDIFF(v_rpt_Service_SLA[Date_Responded_UTC], v_rpt_Service_SLA[ART_ST],HOUR)) & "Days"

     

    Thanks

Could you please make the question clear ?  OR Can you please post some details / sample with what do you have and what do you expect?

 

Thanks

Of course, I have all three of these columns of which the last one I created through a DATEDIFF calculation as shown above. Currently It looks like this:

Date_Responded_UTCART_START
11/6/17 8:00 PM11/7/17 8:00 PM1
11/7/17 8:00 PM11/11/17 8:00 PM4

 

I am wanting it to look like this:

Date_Responded_UTCART_START
11/6/17 8:00 PM11/7/17 8:00 PM1 Days
11/7/17 8:00 PM11/11/17 8:00 PM4 Days

      Thank you Anonymous, This worked great! I had been trying to place the & "Date" inside the parenthesis.
