How to create a calculated date column using an existing date column

Hi All, I have a ReportDate column in a table.

This column has dates from 1974-01-01 till 2026-01-01

and I want to create another calculated column using that existing ReportDate column.

The new column should only show ReportDate ranges from Last 3 years(from todays date) till Today's Month end.

for ex. if today is 12th August 2024 then it should only show dates from 12th Aug 2021 till 31st Aug 2024

 

can someone please help how to create a new column with expected dates

    aatish178 , Try creating a new calculated column using below 

     

    NewReportDate =
    VAR TodayDate = TODAY()
    VAR StartDate = EDATE(TodayDate, -36) -- 36 months back from today
    VAR EndDate = EOMONTH(TodayDate, 0) -- End of the current month
    RETURN
    IF(
    'YourTable'[ReportDate] >= StartDate && 'YourTable'[ReportDate] <= EndDate,
    'YourTable'[ReportDate],
    BLANK()
    )
