how to split number into interval
Hello all, I would like to create new column an "aging interval". It should be a diff between the column "Posting date" and actual date and divided into the 6 month intervals (0-3M, 4-6M, 7-12M, 13-...

Sample data would help but I would suggest creating a column using a SWITCH statement and use DATEDIFF something like:
Column = SWITCH(DATEDIFF([Date1],[Date2],MONTH), 0,"0-3M", 1,"0-3M", 2,"0-3M", 3,"0-3M", 4,"4-6M", 5,"4-6M", 6,"4-6M", ... ) - 7 years ago
Hi Jarda,
You could have two calculated columns
DiffMonth = DATEDIFF([Posting Date],[Actual Date], MONTH)
Aging Interval = IF ( Table1[DiffMonth] <= 3,"0-3M",
IF (Table1[DiffMonth] <= 6, "4-6M",
IF(...)
)

A calcualted column like this should help:
Aging Interval = VAR MonthsBetween = DATEDIFF ( 'Table'[Start Date], 'Table'[End Date], MONTH ) RETURN SWITCH ( TRUE (), MonthsBetween <= 3, "0-3M", MonthsBetween <= 6, "4-6M", MonthsBetween <= 12, "7-12M", MonthsBetween <= 24, "13-24M", MonthsBetween <= 36, "25-36M", ">36M" )
