    Please try the following formula:

     

    InspectionDue = 
EDATE (
    MAX ( Table_owssvr__6[Last Inspection / Calibration Date] ),
    -1 * [Inspection / Calibration Interval]
)

     

    If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.

The classic problem with DATEADD is that the resulting dates have to be present in the column that you pass to the function. So, I would say that it is returning blanks for those rows.

Alternative solutions : use a date table (which contains all dates)

Add the month in power query.

construct the date results in DAX without using DATEADD.

There will be details on each of those if you search the forum / web.

Good luck
