    Hi ESS ,

     

    I think you want to calculate the difference between two dates. You can try DATEDIFF() function in the DAX.

    Column =
DATEDIFF ( 'Table'[taglio_data_ora_fine], 'Table'[taglio_data_ora_inizio], SECOND )

    Best Regards,

Hi,

 

I'm not quite sure i understand, is it just the difference between seconds you're after? If so than the image you provided is showing the correct results. 

Or are you after the total duration difference in seconds between two dates? If that is the case you should try and use Duration.TotalSeconds instead.
