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:
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 :-
