Yesterday=
IF (
    TODAY ()-1
        = DATE ( YEAR ( testTable[Request Closed Date] ), MONTH ( testTable[Request Closed Date] ), DAY ( testTable[Request Closed Date] ) ),
    1,
    0
)
Today =
IF (
    TODAY ()
        = DATE ( YEAR ( testTable[Request Closed Date] ), MONTH ( testTable[Request Closed Date] ), DAY ( testTable[Request Closed Date] ) ),
    1,
    0
)

 

Is this working?

Also, I have updated my previous post with the sample dataset, see if it is working or not.

Try this calculated column

 

Today = IF(TODAY()=testTable[Request Closed Date],1,0)
Yesterday = IF(TODAY()-1=testTable[Request Closed Date],1,0)

 

Also, make sure the Requested Closed Date column type as Date

Hi @Anonymous ,
 
Apart from the solution mentioned, you can try this too.
 
Yesterday = IF (DATEDIFF(Table[Request Closed Date],Today(),DAY) = 1,1,0)
 
Today= IF (DATEDIFF(Table[Request Closed Date],Today(),DAY) = 0,1,0)

@Anonymous  Make sure the column type is Date.

 

I have tried to replicate your scenario.

Below is the PowerQuery for the sample table

 

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjLVNTDVNTIwMlCK1QFyTVC5+GWNUblGCG4sAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Request Closed Date" = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Request Closed Date", type datetime}})
in
    #"Changed Type"

 

Calculated columns

 

Today = IF(TODAY()=testTable[Request Closed Date],1,0)
Yesterday = IF(TODAY()-1=testTable[Request Closed Date],1,0)

 

 Alternatively

Yesterday=
IF (
    TODAY ()-1
        = DATE ( YEAR ( testTable[Request Closed Date] ), MONTH ( testTable[Request Closed Date] ), DAY ( testTable[Request Closed Date] ) ),
    1,
    0
)
Today =
IF (
    TODAY ()
        = DATE ( YEAR ( testTable[Request Closed Date] ), MONTH ( testTable[Request Closed Date] ), DAY ( testTable[Request Closed Date] ) ),
    1,
    0
)

It is working for me.
