Unfortunately, without a file or a picture of the error, I can't help you further. Recommend inserting the file (without sensitive data). Or you can send me a private message (see my profile) to see where the problem might be.

One possibility would be that the date is in text and should be converted to a number.
Select the date range
Right click and select "Format Cells...".
In the Number menu, select Left Default or Number,
OK...thus the text would be converted to a number and the formula should work.
