datesbetween() doesn't work

Hi, 

Can someone tell me why the measure doesn't work?

 

Thanks!

In addition to misuse all() function within datesbetween, I also swapped the position of start date and end date. Here is the correct measure to use:

#leavers 2 =
VAR maxdate =
MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
VAR mindate = maxdate - 365
VAR rolling_12_month_leavers =
CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( Headcount ),
NOT ISBLANK ( Headcount[Exit Date] ),
USERELATIONSHIP ( 'Calendar'[Date], Headcount[Exit Date] ),
DATESBETWEEN (
'Calendar'[Date],
mindate,
maxdate
)
)
RETURN
rolling_12_month_leavers

Hi, @Anonymous 

I am not sure how your whole data model looks like, but try to NOT USER ALL in datesbetween function.

Does that mean datebetween() doesn't allow another formula embedded? I want to calculate no. of leavers from current date back to 12 months ago. Maybe i should use filter() instead of datesbetween()
