Hi @ctedesco3307 ,

 

I suggest you to try this code to create a measure.

Measure = 
VAR _MINDATE = MIN(MAX('Table'[End Date]),TODAY())
VAR _COUNT = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Working Day]),FILTER('Table','Table'[MSSContractDay]<=_MINDATE))+0
RETURN
_COUNT

@amitchandak  thank you but the function needs to sum the workingday column in the table if workingday = 1  -- not just omit saturday and sunday - we have company holidays also

hi Rico,

am using your DAX statement like this:

DaysDiff =
 VAR _MINDATE= MIN(MAX('KPI Delivery'[InvoiceDate]), TODAY())
 VAR _COUNT = CALCULATE(SUM('KPI Delivery'[InvoiceWeekendDay]),FILTER('KPI Delivery', 'KPI Delivery'[InvoiceDate]<=_MINDATE))+0
 
 RETURN
 _COUNT
The measure seems to be working but as soon as i add the measure to a visual i get this error message: 
MdxScript(Model (5,29) Calculation error in measure TABLE [DaysDiff]; the function SUM cannot work with values of type string.  Can you help. thnx!!
