Subtracting 2 dates D

Hi,

I created a column whereby I subtracted 2 date columns. it works but when I display it in a table or matrix, it duplicates the values.

 

#Test = 1.0*('BI rpt_TelkomOrderStatus'[DeliveryStatusDate] - 'BI rpt_TelkomOrderStatus'[SaleDateTo])

Hi @Akesh 

 

A newer PBI Desktop August version (v. 2.108.825.0) was released on 8/17/2022, which has several fixes on issues in the previous version. You could try the latest version and test it again. 

 

In my test with the latest version, I cannot reproduce the problem. If I only add #Test column to a table or a matrix visual, it doesn't have duplicated values there.

@Akesh , Try like

#Test = int('BI rpt_TelkomOrderStatus'[DeliveryStatusDate] - 'BI rpt_TelkomOrderStatus'[SaleDateTo])

 

or

 

#Test = datediff('BI rpt_TelkomOrderStatus'[SaleDateTo], 'BI rpt_TelkomOrderStatus'[DeliveryStatusDate] , day)

Tried both options doesn't work

Try this approach 
DATEDIFF(<Date1>, <Date2>, <Interval>)
