Power BI - Get the number of days a date changes over the months

I have a dataset that has 3 columns Product, Expiry Date and Report Date.

 

Report Date           Product  Expiry Date
Dec-21PPPT-0125/01/2024
Dec-21WEC-5405/06/2023
Dec-21ERRE-6623/08/2025

What I a trying to do is create a 4th column called difference. This will output the number of days (+/-) the expiry date has changed per product from the previous month.

The current forumula I'm using is this but it's not working, any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

difference=
sum(Data[Expiry Date])-CALCULATE(SUM(Data[Expiry Date]),PREVIOUSMONTH(Data[Expiry Date].[Date]))

@obriaincian , Make sure report_date is date , a new column

 

new column =
var _date = eomonth([report_date,-1)
var _max = maxx(filter(Table, [Product] =earlier([Product]) && eomonth([report Date],0) =_date ), [Expiry Date] )
return
datediff(_max,[Expiry Date],day)
