DateAdd Function

DAX DAX Calculations
1

I’m struggling to understand why I can not add the two columns together to get a response date for each row. I don’t want to have to establish a relationship between mail date to perform the calculation because that creates issues when I want to review the summary data by the date column that I’m trying to create. I hope this explanation makes sense. I’ve read almost every blog on non contiguous dates…it’s not clicking for me.

@dbrelsford DATEADD is a table function not a Scalar function, do simple Addition operation for adding two columns.
