Thanks for the reply from suparnababu8  and Kedar_Pande , please allow me to provide another insight:

Hi  @biswad ,

 

Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Create measure.

Measure =
var _today=TODAY()
var _endday=
DATE(
    YEAR(_today),MONTH(_today),22)
return
DATEDIFF(
    _today,_endday,DAY)+2

2. Result:

Create a Measure:

DaysLeftInMonth =
VAR CurrentDate = TODAY()
VAR StartDate = DATE(YEAR(CurrentDate), MONTH(CurrentDate), 22)
VAR EndDate = EOMONTH(StartDate, 0)

RETURN
IF(CurrentDate < StartDate,
0,
DATEDIFF(StartDate, EndDate, DAY)
)

 

Thank you for your help, but I'm getting zero days. So, basically I wanted to count number of days between today and 10/22/2024 ( Which is in the dates column)

Hi @biswad  

 

DaysleftMeasure = 
VAR CurrentDate = MAX([CalenderDateColumn])
VAR StartDate = IF(DAY(CurrentDate) >= 22, DATE(YEAR(CurrentDate), MONTH(CurrentDate), 22), DATE(YEAR(CurrentDate), MONTH(CurrentDate) - 1, 22))
RETURN 
DATEDIFF(StartDate, CurrentDate, DAY)

Try with this. Let me know If it works 

Thank you for your reply, I'm still getting zero days.
