    The only possibility I can think of is that there is something wrong with the Calendar'[WorkDay] formula. Could you please check this column formula is like below? The data type of this column should be “True/False”.

    If it is actually same as mine, could you please upload your .pbix file to OneDrive and share it with me? In that case I can take a look at your .pbix file and try to solve the problem.

    How about the result if we update the “FirstDaySecDiff” measure as below?

     

    FirstDaySecDiff = 
IF (
    Table1[FirstDayEndTime] >= Table1[DateTimeFrom]
        && Table1[FirstDayEndTime] <= Table1[DateTimeTo],
    DATEDIFF ( Table1[DateTimeFrom], Table1[FirstDayEndTime], SECOND ),
    IF (
        Table1[FirstDayEndTime] >= Table1[DateTimeFrom]
            && Table1[FirstDayEndTime] > Table1[DateTimeTo],
        DATEDIFF ( Table1[DateTimeFrom], Table1[DateTimeTo], SECOND ),
        0
    )
)

     

    Best Regards,

    Herbert

Hello Herbert,

 

 I am looking at  your solution, but can you have a look at my data? The FirstDaySecDiff, LastDaySecDiff  and MidDaysSecDiff are too large to be normal. I have no idea where is wrong. Thanks!!!
