Error with New Measure with DATEDIFF()

[Anonymous]

Hi. I am trying to new Measure with DATEDIFF. 

Example that I expected:

My stitution:

I guess the problem is table name and column name are written in Chinese. 

Table Name: COPTD-FT-客戶訂單單身資料檔

Column Names:  預交日 & 原預交日

These two columns type are Date.

Can anyone tell me how to deal with this problem? Thanks!

Hi @Anonymous ,

The problem is not in the Chinese name. The problem lies in the measure you use. If you use the measure, you need to add MAX/MIN here to determine the row of your column name.

If you are adding a calculated column, you do not need to use MAX/MIN, as shown below.

The difference is the context of evaluation. A measure is evaluated in the context of the cell evaluated in a report or in a DAX query, whereas a calculated column is computed at the row level within the table it belongs to.

Reference: measure vs calculated column

I think your column name displayed wrongly in your formula. maybe try to remove extra single qutotation marks.
