@Anonymous do you have refresh date in your data model, if yes, you can use datediff function to calculate # of days.

Hi , Thanks for your response,

 

as mentioned - i have only one column in my data model( MYTable(date) ,max date would be my refreshdatemax(MYTable(date)) , and latest date would be latest MYTable(date).

 

formula would be max(MYTable(date)) - latest (MYTable(date).) we need to build this logic .

 

Thanks

@Anonymous confusing part is your example dataset doesn't have May 20th, 2019 as latest date, as per your example dataset the latest date is May 18th, 2019.

 

So if I have to work on example data set, am I using May 18th, 2019 as most recent date or today's date.

 

Just a note, if you are providing sample data, make sure your expected result is based on that sample data, it just adds extra confusion what you want?
