    Hi Anonymous ,

    You need to use

     DateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow()))

    You may want to go to this posting, I included my pbix at the end

    Using the today function

     

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos are nice too.

Hi Anonymous ,

Good job! You might also look into using SWITCH() in these situations with variables to make debug easier.

Thank you!  In Query Editor, if you are adding a custom column, does the switch function will works?

 

If you could provide me a simple example with a custom column in Query editor, I will be glad to test it.

Best Regards,
