Expression.Error: We cannot convert the value "2012" to type Number.
Getting Expression.Error: We cannot convert the value "2012" to type Number. when using this function for a custom column:
Text Year = Text.Combine({[Quarter Begin Month],"/", Number.ToText([Year])})
Year - Whole Number format, values e.g. 2012, 2013, 2014
Quarter Begin month - Text format
Text Year - Text format
Why is the function trying to convert [Year] to Number when I have used Number.ToText function?
Appreciate any help

Hi, Reviewing your filter options i saw the year column is already Text Type.
Don't need to transform to text.

Must have taken the screenshot while playing around with format type.
Getting the same error with Year foramtted as Whole Number...
