7 years agodd:hh:mm:ss
Hi,
After I upload the below excel sheet into power bi it will show an error in the highlighted row.
How can i change the data type in Power BI as dd:hh:mm:ss?
Hi cham,
To format data in "dd:hh:mm:ss", you can add a calculated column with below DAX:
Column = FORMAT(Table[TimeField],"dd:hh:mm:ss")
But, the data type will be converted to Text, as "dd:hh:mm:ss" is not a supported date/time type by Power BI.Best regards,Yuliana Gu
