In this video we look at how you can build a formula field to show the number of days between a date field and today's date. You can also use this formula to calculate the number of days between any two date fields.
As a bonus, we also look at how you can also use a Date/Time field in the formula (Date/Time fields are ones that capture the date and a time stamp that need converting to a date format for use in these functions)
