Calculate time between order and delivery date or order and today's date

‎10-10-2017 11:51 AM

So in my table i have a an order date, a deliver date and a custom collumn for today's date. I have set up a column using 

"DeliveryDays = (TableName[OrderDate] - TableName[ReceivedDate])*1." which is giving me the days an order took to deliver.

 

But I also need to show how many days it has been if the order has not been delivered. so I need something like: Subtract delivery date from order date, if delivery date is blank then subtract today's date from order date.

 

I appreciate the help.

you can do something like this, didn' tested it but this will do.

 

Time to Deliver = DATEDIFF(Table[Order Date], IF(Table[Delivery Date] = BLANK(), TODAY(), Table[Delivery Date], DAY)
