SUMX Help

[kballar1]

 

I created a measure using SUMX to get the number of days between two dates so that I could see how many days it takes an account manager to approve something once it's submitted for approval. However now I am seeing issues with it. Some of the results "Lag" are correct but some say "112" lag but the dates are not 112 days in between. I used: 

Measure = SUMX(Table1, DATEDIFF(Table1 [Physical Date],Table1 [PriceApproved.date], DAY))

try below measure 

measure =
  datediff(
     min('tablename'[physiacl date]),
     min('tablename'[price approved]),
     day
  )

Hi @kballar1 ,

Your measure is working fine with my test data. I recreated a measure for you  to test.

Here some steps that I want to share, you can check them if they suitable for your requirement.

Here is my test data:

1.Create a measure

Lag = SUMX(
    'Table', 
    INT('Table'[Price Approved] - 'Table'[Physical Date])
)

2.Final output

Best Regards,

 Hi,

I tried that but as you can see, it works one some but not the other. There are not 48 days between 12/21/2023-1/02/2024. How do I fix this?

Hi @kballar1 

In your data screenshot, the Physical Date and Price Approved Date are not in Date format. Please make both dates as Date format.
Use Power Query to correct your data datatype

Then use the measure

Measure = DATEDIFF(SELECTEDVALUE('Table (2)'[Physical Date]),SELECTEDVALUE('Table (2)'[Price Approved]),DAY)

You will find all date diff are correct

If solved your requirement, please mark this answer as SOLUTION.

It was already marked as date I was just presenting the data in a table visual. But I tried the code you suggested and it worked. Thank you!

HI @kballar1 

Please try below dax

DATEDIFF = DATEDIFF('Table (2)'[Physical Date],'Table (2)'[Price Approved],DAY)

Please show the expected outcome based on the sample data you provided. Find how to provide sample data
