Calculate half a year with DATEIFF

Hi

 

I am using DATEIFF function to create calculated column to calculate time interval between two days. May I ask if you can help me how can I calculate half a year intervals? The function only allows me for Quarters.

 

Function:

YearsBetween column =
DATEDIFF(
    ('Blade List + Findings'[Comm End Date]),
    ('Blade List + Findings'[SG145 Finding register.Inspection Date]),YEAR
 
)
 
Thank you.

    Hi AndreaSo ,
    You can use MONTH as an interval. For example:-
    EVALUATE VAR StartDate = DATE ( 2019, 07, 01 ) VAR EndDate = DATE ( 2021, 12, 31 ) RETURN { ( "Year", DATEDIFF ( StartDate, EndDate, YEAR ) ), ( "Quarter", DATEDIFF ( StartDate, EndDate, QUARTER ) ), ( "Month", DATEDIFF ( StartDate, EndDate, MONTH ) ), ( "Week", DATEDIFF ( StartDate, EndDate, WEEK ) ), ( "Day", DATEDIFF ( StartDate, EndDate, DAY ) ) }
    Datediff give you these interval options :-
     - SECOND
    - MINUTE
    - HOUR
    - DAY
    - WEEK
    - MONTH
    - QUARTER
    - YEAR
    You can refer to this link for more information :-
