Dax measure needed for day diff

I want to calculate the days difference between the payment received date and invoice date and the calculated column i used is

Days Diff = (RECEIVABLES[Payment Recieved date])-(RECEIVABLES[Invoice Date])
It is a straight forward measure but it seems to not work in all cases

S.No 5 if you see the difference in the date is 28 days but it shows 56, similarly S.No 5 the difference is 49 days.

Is there any update I need to do for the measure.

Hi @Avivek ,

 

Use this measure for calculating difference between days.

 

Days Diff =
DATEDIFF (
    MAX ( RECEIVABLES[Payment Recieved date] ),
    MAX ( RECEIVABLES[Invoice Date] ),
    DAY
)

@Avivek - Try:

 

Days Diff = ((RECEIVABLES[Payment Recieved date])-(RECEIVABLES[Invoice Date])) * 1.

 

Otherwise, confirm there is not a duplicate record. 28 + 28 = 56 so it is suspicious. You are probably using a default SUM aggregation on that column.
