Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @dharmdutt ,
That may be where the problem lies.
You need to add () to BLANK for the engine to recognize it as a function.
Measure =
VAR Start_Date =
MIN ( data[Start] )
VAR End_Date =
MAX ( data[End] )
VAR Column_Date =
MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
RETURN
IF ( Start_Date <= Column_Date && End_Date >= Column_Date, 1, BLANK() )

The formula is syntactically ok but you are missing the name of the item
a =
VAR Start_Date =
MIN ( data[Start] )
VAR End_Date =
MAX ( data[End] )
VAR Column_Date =
MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
RETURN
IF ( Start_Date <= Column_Date && End_Date >= Column_Date, 1 )
