DAX | Date Diff

Herchris7172 — Thu, 04 Jul 2024 21:40:29 GMT

Hello Team

Need your help on the below

I have 2 Tables, one includes Dates, Revised Due Date

Second is a Calender table Used to define my Selected-Date=SelectedValue(Calender[Date])

Need to Calculate the Date Diff. If Revised Due Date is Blank then DateDiff is between Date and Selected Date otherwise it will be Revised Due Date and Selected Date.

Am using a Column with sumx but only managing to get the sum of the DateDiff with Revised Due Date

Column = SUMX(Sheet1,IF(ISBLANK(Sheet1[Revised Due Date]),DATEDIFF(Sheet1[Dates ],Sheet1[Selected-Date],MONTH),DATEDIFF(Sheet1[Dates ],Sheet1[Revised Due Date],MONTH)))

Any Advice

Read about how to use COALESCE to test for BLANK() and replace it with other values like "TODAY()".

Thanks for the reply from lbendlin , please allow me to provide another insight:

Hi Herchris7172 ,

Here are the steps you can follow：

1. Create measure.

Test = var _select=SELECTEDVALUE('Calender'[Date]) var _table= ADDCOLUMNS( ALL('Table'),"Datediff", IF( 'Table'[Revised Due Date] = BLANK(), DATEDIFF( 'Table'[includes Dates],_select,MONTH), DATEDIFF( 'Table'[Revised Due Date],_select,MONTH))) return SUMX( _table,[Datediff])

2. Result:

Hi Herchris7172 ,

Here are the steps you can follow：

1. Create measure.

Measure = var _select=SELECTEDVALUE('Calender'[Date]) var _if= IF( MAX('Table'[Revised Due Date]) = BLANK(), DATEDIFF( MAX('Table'[Date]),_select,DAY), DATEDIFF( MAX('Table'[Revised Due Date]),_select,DAY)) return DIVIDE(ABS(_if) ,30)

Another way I found out is this

_months_2 =

Var Due_Date = SELECTEDVALUE(Sheet1[Dates ])

Var Revise_Date = SELECTEDVALUE(Sheet1[Revised Due Date])

Var Results = IF(ISBLANK(Revise_Date), DATEDIFF(Sheet1[Selected-Date],Due_Date,MONTH),DATEDIFF(Sheet1[Selected-Date],Revise_Date,MONTH))

RETURN Results
