Not working for me! I' am trying to take no.of days between close_date and start_date, it throws an error which says-The third argument Interval can only be one of the following: YEAR, QUARTER, MONTH, WEEK, DAY, HOUR, MINUTE, SECOND...
I' am using the following expression

DaysLenght = DATEDIFF(AA_SALES_FACT[CLOSE_DATE],AA_SALES_FACT[START_DATE],DAY)
