Hi I am new to power BI
I have created a flow to update a power BI dataset and then created a report from it.
All has worked well.
My time stamp is shown as: 03/27/20 12:33:46 PM from the microsoft form.
I need to create a todays date to calculate the days elapsed since a responce was last recorded..
Looking at DATEDIFF etc it should be reasonabley easy, but i cant use power bi desktop to make a custom table as its greyed out.
Table on my report below which needs a third colume with the days elapsed
Do i need to sperate the time as the mark as date table is all greyed out as well?
Is there a visual that already exsists for this task?
condtional formating maybe one to highlight x amount of days as bands but i cant in the current format.
Any help would be much appricated.

Hi @RichardT_78
You can create a measure like
Measure = DATEDIFF( SELECTEDVALUE( table[column] ), TODAY() or NOW(), DAY )
