if date possible switch

Hi 

 

If someone can assist please?

 

I would like to say in 1 column the below please?

The rdate contains a series of dates in the past and the future.

 

rdate = last order over 2 and a half years ago then 1

rdate=  should be re-ordered within 6 months then 2

rdate= order last reviewed less than 2 and a half years ago then 3

 
Thank you

    Ok. I wrote the formula for a measure actually. 

    Please use the following for calculated column:

    rdateCalc =
VAR __Difference =
    DATEDIFF ( 'SomeDateTable'[rdate], TODAY (), DAY )
VAR __Result =
    IF (
        __Difference > 913,
        1,
        IF (
            __Difference < 913
                && __Difference > 0,
            3,
            IF ( __Difference < 0 && __Difference > -180, 2, BLANK () )
        )
    )
RETURN
    __Result

    Hi matts29 ,

    Can you try this?

    rdateCalc =
VAR __Difference =
    DATEDIFF ( MAXX ( 'SomeDateTable', 'SomeDateTable'[rdate] ), TODAY (), DAY )
VAR __Result =
    IF (
        __Difference > 913,
        1,
        IF (
            __Difference < 913
                && __Difference > 0,
            3,
            IF ( __Difference < 0 && __Difference > -180, 2, BLANK () )
        )
    )
RETURN
    __Result
