Hi,
I am trying to compute the days difference between two dates using DAX. These two dates are located in different tables. The problem is when I input the DAX it does not show the other table and its fields.
DAX should be: Ship Date - DateReceiveDateTime = DATEDIFF('TABLE 1'[ShipDate], 'TABLE 2'[DateReceivedDateTime], DAY)
In screenshot below, TABLE 2 is not appearing.
I already set-up the relationship between these two tables but still cannot detect the other table when using DAX.
Here is the pbix [file] for reference.
Appreciate if you can help me. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Mark V

Hi @markefrody,
It doesn't seem to have anything to do with relationships. Calculated columns are suitable for single-table calculations. As shown in the figure, you created in Table 1, so all the fields in Table 1 are included. So you need to use measure to do that.
Hope it helps!
