Guide
Let's start by opening your Power BI Desktop report where you need the current date function.
Navigate to the 'Modeling' tab in the top ribbon.
Click on the 'New measure' button to create a place for our date formula.
Use the 'TODAY' function to get the current date.
Press the check mark or hit Enter to commit your new date measure.
You now have a dynamic date measure that will update automatically each time your report refreshes.
