In Excel, if you need to calculate the difference between two dates in years, month, or days, the DATEDIF function will handle it. DATEDIF is "Date & Dif". It is an interesting function since it does not show up in the Date & Time function in Excel. DATEDIF has three arguments - start date, end date, and date unit (year/month/ or date).

Reason to use DATEDIF
Get days, months, or years between two dates
HR could use this to see how long employees have worked. We could track how long customers have been in the system.

Syntax
=DATEDIF (start_date, end_date, unit)
