Helper IIDAX Queries - Next 3 Months

DATEADD() function will return to a table instead of a value, so you can't use today function in it.
You can try my calculated column with Date function as below.
Insurance Expiring Next 3 Months? = IF([Insurance Expiry Date]< DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())+3,DAY(TODAY())),"Yes","No")My Sample:
