Power Query Error with Specific Date

‎04-20-2023 10:29 AM

Hi,

 

I'm getting an error with the below script and I can't see why its comming up. Can anyone please correct me on this?

 

if TERMINATION DATE = 31/12/4721 then

Duration.Days(Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) - [CONTINUOUS SERVICE DATE]) /12)

else

Duration.Days([TERMINATION DATE]-[CONTINUOUS SERVICE DATE])/12)

Update, solved it myself as below

if [TERMINATION DATE] = #date(4721, 12, 31) then

Duration.Days(Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) - [CONTINUOUS SERVICE DATE]) /12

else

Duration.Days([TERMINATION DATE]-[CONTINUOUS SERVICE DATE])/12
