Datediff: Total Noobie question

user059525

Hello all, I am non-technical, non-SQL speaker trying to figure out DATEDIFF.

 

My problem

1. In Domo, I have a date that looks like this:10/17/2019 11:06:45 AM (this is a 'date' field in my table)

2. I'd like to add a calculated field that counts how many day from "today" it is.

 

Can someone send me the Datediff statement I need?

 

 

Best,

Here it is 

 

 Datediff( Date(`yourdatefmield`) , Current_Date())

or 

 Datediff( Current_Date() , Date(`yourdatefmield`))

note: you might or might not have to specify Date for your date/time field

thats why I usually prefer to do this:  Date(`yourdatefield`). , but that is just me
