I'm trying to create a MEASURE that will calculate the difference in dates between two date fields. (Start date & end date)
Both Start_date and end_Date have data hierarchies and are in 'date' format mm/dd/yyyy.
Delta = DATEDIFF('Table'[Start_date], 'Table'[End_Date], Day)
But I get the error:
"A single value for column 'Start_Date' in table 'Table' cannot be determined. This can happen when a measure formula refers to a column that contains many values without specifying an aggregation such as min, max, count, or sum to get a single result."
Both columns have the same date format. Does this issue have anything to do with both date columns having a hierarchy (day/month/quarter/year)?
