Edate Dax

Hi there,

I ve tried to create a comming due Dax for incomming goods control. This works great since edate works with months:

 

Comming Due WEK = CALCULATE(COUNT('Wareneingang'[Status]);CONTAINSSTRING('Wareneingang'[TheoretischesFreigabedatum] < EDATE(TODAY();1);'Wareneingang'[TheoretischesFreigabedatum] > TODAY()))
 
This gives me all comming dues within the next 30 days.
 
Now I want to have the same query instead with 30days with 4 days.
 
Theoretically u can calculate how month are 4 days in decimal (0.13333) but this doesnt work.
 
Any ideas?

Note that EDATE is much more subtle than just adding/subtracting 30 days. It also gracefully handles missing dates, like when you say EDATE("2020-03-31",-1)

Hi @Yarisch77 ,

 

 

CALCULATE(COUNT('Wareneingang'[Status]);CONTAINSSTRING('Wareneingang'[TheoretischesFreigabedatum] < TODAY()-4 ;'Wareneingang'[TheoretischesFreigabedatum] > TODAY()))
