Hi @anwargabr ,

Please try to change the measure.

Measure = var _1=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[From]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Index]=SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Index])-1))

return 
IF(MAX('Table'[From])=SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[issue date]),BLANK(),DATEDIFF(_1,MAX('Table'[From]),DAY))

Hi @anwargabr ,

I have created a simple sample, please refer to my pbix file to see if it helps you.

Create a measure.

Measure = var _1=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[dates]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Index]=SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Index])-1))

return 
IF(MAX('Table'[From])=SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[issue date]),BLANK(),DATEDIFF(_1,MAX('Table'[From]),DAY))
