Datediff count using a slicer - unless it'd up-to todays date?

Hi,

 

Sorry I'm useless.  I cant figure this out.

 

I have this measure which works well but I don't wan't it to count up past todays date.  Is it possible to amend this dax to do that?

 
Slicer Day Count 24-25 = var _max = maxx(ALLSELECTED('Date24-25'),'Date24-25'[Date]) var _min = minx(ALLSELECTED('Date24-25'),'Date24-25'[Date]) return datediff(_min,_max,day)+1

 

Thank you.

Hi @FlankyPank2___ ,

I create a table as you mentioned.

Then I create a measure and here is the DAX code.

Measure = 
VAR _max =
    MIN ( TODAY (), MAXX ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Date24-25' ), 'Date24-25'[Date] ) )
VAR _min =
    MINX ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Date24-25' ), 'Date24-25'[Date] )
RETURN
    DATEDIFF ( _min, _max, DAY ) + 1

Hi @FlankyPank2___ 

 

Why not try TODAY() instead of Max Date?
