Hello,
Trying to figure out this error
Trying to figure out days between current date and request date for items that do not have a finish date, getting an expression error We cannot apply field access to the type Function.
Details:
Value=[Function]
Key=Current Date
This is my current expression
if [#"Finish Date #(lf)"]= null then Duration.Days[Current Date]-[Request Date] else 0
Thanks in Advance
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Brash1 ,
Try something like this:
if [#"Finish Date #(lf)"] = null
then Duration.Days(Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) - [Request Date])
else 0
