Hi guy. I've to calculate the difference between two date (which are in the same table) but if one is blank I want to use today.
I write the function so:
if isblank([RechDatum]) then now() - [Eingangsdatum] else 0
but it doesn't work, gives me error.
How can I resolve? Thank you.

Solved! Go to Solution.
You can use below two step method
Create a new column
Column = If(Table1[Date 2] = BLANK(),TODAY(),Table1[Date 2])
Then Date Difference you can calculate as below
DATEDIFF = DATEDIFF(Table1[Date 1],Table1[Column],DAY)
Please let me know if this helps ![]()
