I use the following expression in Power BI,
"DATESINPERIOD(cashserv[date], LASTDATE(cashserv[date]), -365, DAY) and it works fine. "

When I try to use it in Power Pivot Measure is gets syntax error
"The expression is not valid or appears to be incomplete. Please review and correct the expression.
The syntax for 'day' is incorrect. (DAX(DATESINPERIOD(cashserv[date],LASTDATE(cashserv[date]),-365, day)"

Can someone help me with this?
Thanks.

Press Ctrl+` to show all formulas. Press it again to toggle back to numbers. The grave accent is often under the tilde on US keyboards.
Get the DAX Studio from SQLBI.COM
Sometimes just referred to as "The Italians", Marco Russo and Albert Ferrari have been strong leaders in the Microsoft BI revolution.

But doesn't DAY need to be capitalized? or check your parenthesis count.
The Studio will check and also help in formatting for easier reading.
