    I see you wanted to do is to calculate for those rows created date is before 7/31/2020 and resolved date is blank or after 7/31/2020.

     

    For the rows, you want to adjust the resolved date blank as the cut off date "7/31/2020".

     

     

     

    Tryout 2 Open Age = 
IF ( 
   -- only those rows with created date <= 7/31/2020 and resolved date as blank or after 7/31/2020
  ('FreshService RAW DATA'[Created Date] <= Date(2020,7,31) 
   && ( 
           IsBlank('FreshService RAW DATA'[Resolved Date]
           || 'FreshService RAW DATA'[Resolved Date] > Date(2020,7,31) 
       )
  ), 

  DATEDIFF(
   'FreshService RAW DATA'[Created Date], 

   IF (
       IsBlank('FreshService RAW DATA'[Resolved Date] ), 
       Date(2020,7,31), 
       'FreshService RAW DATA'[Resolved Date]
   )
  , DAY)
)

  DATEDIFF('FreshService RAW DATA'[Created Date], Date(2020,7,31), DAY),

  DATEDIFF('FreshService RAW DATA'[Created Date], 'FreshService RAW DATA'[Resolved Date], Day)
)

 

Yes, it should work, I dont see any issues with it. What error you are getting?

U mean you want to check for the resolved date as either blank or has to be > Date(2020,7,31) ?

 

Try this and see

 

 

Tryout 2 Open Age = 
IF ( 
  ('FreshService RAW DATA'[Created Date] <= Date(2020,7,31) 
   && ( 
           IsBlank('FreshService RAW DATA'[Resolved Date]
           || 'FreshService RAW DATA'[Resolved Date] > Date(2020,7,31) 
       )
  ), 

  DATEDIFF('FreshService RAW DATA'[Created Date], Date(2020,7,31), DAY),

  DATEDIFF('FreshService RAW DATA'[Created Date], 'FreshService RAW DATA'[Resolved Date], Day)
)
