How to create measures for TASKS

Hello Community,

 

I hope you are good and wondering if you can help me please.

 

I'd like to create a new column called STATUS which says:

 

1) Before today = Overdue

2) Today = Due Today

3) After today = Upcoming

You could create a column like

Status =
VAR DaysDiff =
    DATEDIFF ( TODAY (), 'Table'[Scheduled date], DAY )
RETURN
    SWITCH (
        TRUE (),
        DaysDiff < 0, "Overdue",
        DaysDiff > 0, "Upcoming",
        "Due today"
    )
