Calculate Date Difference
The goal is to create a measure of the difference between any date on the Date column and 10/01/2020. I am getting an error on the first step...not sure why the calculation is not accepting the Date field.
The final result will look something like (but with the right syntaxes):
Days to 10/01/2020 = 'Daily Trend'[Date]-10/01/2020
diogobraga2 - Try:
Days to 10/01/2020 = (DATE(2020,10,1) - 'Daily Trend'[Date]) * 1.
Or
Days to 10/01/2020 = (DATE(2020,10,1) - MAX('Daily Trend'[Date])) * 1.

HI diogobraga2
I would use datediff https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/datediff-function-dax
ColumnDiff = DATEDIFF('Daily Trend'[Date] ), DATE(2020,01,10), DAY )
