    HI Zubair_Muhammad ,

     

    Thanks for your solutions.

    I tried the Same data and Formulas my side But the result is showing wrong.

    please give any suggestions to change my Measure.

     

    --> Days Measure showing perfectly 

     

     

    Days = 
  var SecondLastOrderID = 
                   CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[OrderID]), FILTER('Table','Table'[OrderID] < MAX('Table'[OrderID])))
  var LastOrderID = MAX('Table'[OrderID])
return 
  DATEDIFF(
           CALCULATE(VALUES('Table'[Delivery Date]),'Table'[OrderID] = SecondLastOrderID),
           CALCULATE(VALUES('Table'[Delivery Date]),'Table'[OrderID] = LastOrderID),DAY)

     

     

     

    --> Delivery date showing the last date of OrderID

     

    regards,

    Naveen
