Adding Units To Calculated Column

This is probalby a super easy solutions to this but after trying several different methods from the forum I couldn't get it to work. I have several columns that I need to either have time units added to them (ie. Hour, Day, Minute).

 

Here is an example of one of my columns that needs to have the "Days" unit added:

 

ART = ABS(DATEDIFF(v_rpt_Service_SLA[Date_Responded_UTC], v_rpt_Service_SLA[ART_ST],HOUR))

Am not sure this is what you expect ....Please let me know if you need something else  🙂

 

Adding & "Days" at the end of your formula will solve the problem.

 

ART = ABS(DATEDIFF(v_rpt_Service_SLA[Date_Responded_UTC], v_rpt_Service_SLA[ART_ST],HOUR)) & "Days"

 

Thanks

Hi

Could you please make the question clear ?  OR Can you please post some details / sample with what do you have and what do you expect?

 

Thanks
Raj

Of course, I have all three of these columns of which the last one I created through a DATEDIFF calculation as shown above. Currently It looks like this:

Date_Responded_UTCART_START
11/6/17 8:00 PM11/7/17 8:00 PM1
11/7/17 8:00 PM11/11/17 8:00 PM4

 

I am wanting it to look like this:

Date_Responded_UTCART_START
11/6/17 8:00 PM11/7/17 8:00 PM1 Days
11/7/17 8:00 PM11/11/17 8:00 PM4 Days

Thank you @Anonymous, This worked great! I had been trying to place the & "Date" inside the parenthesis.
