Project Dates

Hello! I am trying to create a table in Power BI which will show time elapsed and time remaining in a project.

 

There's a few things I am trying to do:

I have the project contract start date and the end date but how do I populate a column to update with today's date?

Then I am guessing I will need a measure to calculate months remaining (end date - today date) and time elapsed with (today's date - start date)

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated!
