@Anonymous,

 

Create a new column and use the DATEDIFF function.

Here's a link to how DATEDIFF works: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/datediff-function-dax

 

For months difference between Hire_Date and Date, you will have to use below formula:

Month_Diff Col = DATEDIFF([hire date], [Date], MONTH)

 

For days difference between Hire_Date and Date, you will have to use below formula:

 

Day_Diff Col = DATEDIFF([hire date], [Date], DAY)​

 

 

Give a thumbs up if this post helped you in any way and mark this post as solution if it solved your query !!!

@Anonymous - Maybe:

Column =
  VAR __HireYear = YEAR([hire date])
  VAR __HireMonth = MONTH([hire date])
  VAR __DateYear = YEAR([Date])
  VAR __DateMonth = MONTH([Date])
RETURN
  (__DateYear - __HireYear)*12 + (__HireMonth - __DateMonth)
