Hi All, 

I have a table which has dates column ( screenshot attached), I would like to calculate number of days in a month based on 22nd as start date. For example today is 8th Oct, so the total should be 16 . Any help on how can I achieve this would be greatly appriciated

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
