Hi, M_SBS_6
According to your description, you have an error in converting the time format, according to my test, the format "1/22/2024" can be converted normally. You can try the following to solve the problem.
1. Please check whether all the data formats of your date columns are unified.PDF:
Test:
2. If the format is uniform, you can modify the query in Power BI Advanced Editor to use the 'Date.FromText' function to specify the format of the date string. For example, if the date is formatted as 'M/dd/yyyyy' (e.g., '1/22/2024'), the following M code can be used:
let
Source = ... ,
ConvertedDate = Table.TransformColumns(Source, {"YourDateColumnName", each Date.FromText(_, "en-US", "M/dd/yyyy"), type date})
in
