    Hi richrich123 ,

     

    According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.

    (1) This is my test data.  

    (2) We can create a measure.

    Older than 2 days = 
IF(DATEDIFF(SELECTEDVALUE('Case'[lastcustomerupdate]),TODAY(),DAY)>2,1,0)

    (3) Then the result is as follows.

    Best Regards,

    Neeko Tang

Try it like this

Older than 2 days = IF( DATEDIFF(TODAY(), SELECTEDVALUE('Case'[lastcustomerupdate].[Date]),DAY) > 2,1,0)

        Weird, you're sure its the right date field that's referenced in the dax measure?
